Sometimes, a casserole is more than just a casserole; it’s chicken Divan. This chicken Divan recipe is decadent, delicious and requires very little prep time, thanks to some already-prepared ingredients such as condensed chicken soup, cooked chicken and cooked rice. Even the broccoli is already cut. Easy broccoleasy.<\/p>\n

What is chicken Divan?<\/h2>\n

Chicken Divan, sometimes called chicken broccoli casserole, is a casserole concoction of broccoli, chicken, sherry, a bechamel-style sauce and cheese, created generations ago by Chef Anthony Lagasi of the Divan Parisien restaurant in the former Chatham Hotel in New York City. (The building has since been razed.) No one’s certain exactly when this bubbling-hot casserole was first offered, but it’s listed on a 1943 version of the restaurant’s menu. Lagasi never divulged the exact ingredients, yet the recipe has lived on in countless iterations in cookbooks and kitchens for the past 80 years.<\/p>\n
