Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 5 ounces Baby spinach
• 2 cups Frozen broccoli florets
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Step 3

In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour into the skillet and stir continuously for 1-2 minutes to create a roux. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream, ensuring no lumps form.

Step 5

Add the Dijon mustard and stir well. Simmer the sauce for 3-4 minutes until thickened. Remove the skillet from the heat.

Step 6

In a large bowl, combine the spinach (lightly wilted if fresh), broccoli florets, and sliced chicken. Pour the sauce over the mixture and stir to coat evenly.

Step 7

Transfer the chicken and vegetable mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly in the dish.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 9

Drizzle olive oil over the breadcrumb topping to help it crisp up while baking.

Step 10

Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your creamy, cheesy Chicken Florentine Divan!
