Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 cups broccoli florets
• 10.5 ounces gluten-free cream of chicken soup
• 0.5 cup gluten-free sour cream
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 cups water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts in a pot and add water to cover them. Add a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the chicken for 15-20 minutes or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside.

Step 4

While the chicken is cooking, steam the broccoli florets until just tender, about 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 5

Once the chicken is cooked, remove from the water and allow to cool slightly. Shred the chicken using two forks or by hand.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free cream of chicken soup, sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until smooth.

Step 7

Add the shredded chicken and broccoli to the mixture. Stir until the chicken and broccoli are well-coated.

Step 8

Transfer the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 10

In a small bowl, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs with olive oil until they are moistened.

Step 11

Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the cheese layer.

Step 12

Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.

Step 13

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
