This recipe was a HUGE hit with some alterations as per the other reviews. I used milk instead of mayo, and 2 cans of cream of chicken instead of 1 chicken and 1 mushroom. I put 1 3/4 cups of cheese in the soup mixture, along with more milk to aid the consistency. I omitted the lemon juice entirely and used 1/2 tsp. garlic powder, 1/2 tsp. curry powder, and 1/2 tsp. minced onion. I then sprinkled more cheese on top and baked. It took about an hour to bake. About halfway through, I sprinkled melted butter and bread crumbs lightly on top. During the last 10 minutes I raised the heat to 400, which browned the top nicely. It was great over a side of broccoli cheese flavored rice!

Extremely delicious! Much better than I even thought. I lightly seasoned the chicken with garlic powder when cooking, and added 1 tsp to the mixture- I also mixed the cheese in with the sauce like others suggested. Didn't have mayo, so used just a bit of 2% milk instead. Also added a dash of pepper and paprika. I didn't use quite as much cheese though, cause I was using a package of frozen broccoli and cheese already. Nearly doubled the sauce recipe so there'd be enough to spread over bowtie noodles, and sprinkled crushed Ritz crackers on top during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Incredible recipe! Works so well with pasta- my boyfriend and I were so amazed. He was surprised at how good the broccoli tasted (he's not a vegetable guy), and he complimented the sauce several times. Yay! This will be a regular item on our menu now. Yum!

Great recipe! I used double the chicken, 1 cup of mayo, the juice of an entire lemon, and 2 tsp curry. Mixed some bread crumbs with a little butter and sprinkled over the cheese. Served with rice and salad, everyone loved it. We'll be making this many more times!

WONDERFUL. My family finished off the whole dish. As per other reviewers suggestions, I topped it off with french fried onions as well and the result was fantastic!

EXCELLENT. I added freshly ground black pepper, and 1/2 tsp curry powder per other reviews. I also topped with french fried onions and served with wild rice.

Wonderful quick meal I served mine over rice and I added extra cheese on top. Turned out pretty good I'm just not a fan of a ton of mayo.

This was pretty good but like many of the reviews said, it would have been better if I'd have added some bread crumbs to the top. It was to creamy without. I used fresh broccoli and was worried that I hadn't precooked them but they turned out great!! I will use this again adding bread crumbs next time!!

Really yummy and great for leftovers too!! I followed some of the suggestions and added my own as well...ie. I used low sodium soup, added shredded cheese to the soup mixture, topped with breadcrumbs/butter, and used the 1t curry powder. It was great over brown rice or plain...Hubby and I loved it! Next time I will try adding baby carrots to the broccoli and topping with a ritz cracker/butter topping!!!

I had all the ingredients on hand, so I went with it. I added Hungarian paprika to the chicken since some said the recipe was missing something. To cut back on fat, I omitted the cheese and used reduced fat cream soup. I didn't like the mayo, so I'll omit that next time. It was much easier to just mix everything together instead of layering. I was in the mood for something creamy, and this satisfied that craving. I had this over some rice too.

Allrecipes picked dinner for me tonight based on an ingredient search so this is what we had. I used 2 cans of cream of chicken, 1 lb chicken and probably only a cup of cheese. I seasoned it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and a little curry powder. We served it over brown rice. My 10 month old son LOVED it...he finished an entire bowl! My husband and I thought it was OK. We give it 4 stars because it was easy to make and it can be made completely with things we always have in the fridge or pantry.

This recipe was good, however I did add and change a few things. For one, I mixed all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl - there was no layering. Secondly, I used two cans of cream of chicken soup. Third, I sauteed one finely chopped onion and a whole container of fresh mushrooms (sliced) in 2 tablespoons butter, and added that to the bowl. Fourth, I added a generous sprinkle of pepper and as per others' suggestions, I added 1 tsp. curry powder, 1 tsp. garlic powder, and increased the lemon juice. Fifth, instead of mayo I used heavy cream. Sixth, I used shredded mont. jack and increased the amount. Seventh I added parmesan cheese to the mixture. Also as per other reviews, I baked for 30 min., sprinkled with bread crumbs and then baked another 10. I served it all over white rice. Very good!!

Very good. Especially w/minor taste changes. I put cheese and breadcrumbs on 1/2 of casserole and leave 1/2 w/out. That way I can have the 'slimmer' version while my husband doesn't care about calories...

Broccoli made moisture in bottom of pan, soup mix did not melt down through ingredients. Perhaps an instruction to mix soup mixture with chicken and broccoli would correct both of those problems.

Good in a pinch. I usually don't care for condensed soup recipes, but I was running out of time and needed something quick and easy. I didn't have cream of mushroom so I used a can of cream of broccoli with the cream of chicken. It turned out pretty good and the kids loved it!

This is a very good recipe if you want broccoli and soup in it. I made mine without the broccoli, replace it with celery and onions, added potato chips on the top and serve a vegetable on the side.
