Chicken Divan Easy

For week night meals I am always looking for quick and easy, home cooked and healthy, and just plain good...all in one dish preferably. I am not hard to please.

Chicken Divan can be one of those dishes. Of course, it can also be one of those 5-star elegant dishes that you slave over all day, too. First of all to make it meet my week night criteria, I usually use chicken I cooked on the weekend or chicken I crock pot the same day. Then I combine canned soup, mayonnaise and spices for the sauce. It can really be put together in about 10 minutes and baked for 30 minutes while you unwind, check email, surf the web, or tend to your kids. It can really be that easy. Hope you enjoy!

• 2 cups shredded chicken
• 1 - 10 ounce package frozen broccoli, thawed
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon sage
• 1/2 teaspoon thyme
• black pepper to taste

Spray olive oil on the bottom and sides of a 2-quart casserole dish. Layer thawed broccoli in the bottom. Top with the

shredded chicken. Sprinkle with sage, thyme, and pepper.  In a small bowl combine soup, mayonnaise, and lemon juice. Spread on top of chicken and spices. Top with shredded cheese.

Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Hope you enjoy this quick and easy weeknight supper!
