Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1 cup milk
• 1 can cheddar cheese soup
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 6 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
• 8 ounces frozen chopped broccoli, defrosted
• 1 1/2 cups crushed Ritz crackers

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a casserole dish.
Season chicken with salt and pepper and place in prepared dish.
In a medium bowl, mix together milk, soup, paprika, and cheddar cheese.
Pour half of cheese mixture over chicken.
Scatter broccoli pieces over cheese mixture.
Top with Ritz cracker pieces and remaining cheese mixture.
Place in oven and bake for 45 minutes.

Notes
I layered a little of the cheese sauce on top of the cracker crumbs. I like how they blend into the sauce and thicken and flavor it. If you want a crunchy topping, mix the cracker crumbs with a tablespoon or two of melted butter and sprinkle on top.
