Here's another recipe that I've referred to and several people have asked about....we love it and call it "Awesome Chicken With Broccoli"......it was orignally posted in the Reader's Recipe section as "Cheezy Chicken & Green Bean Casserole", but I'm not crazy about green beans...

8 chicken breast halves, boned (skin if you like)
1 package fresh mushrooms (sliced)
2-3 cups frozen or fresh broccoli (I use fresh, cut small)
1 large onion, sliced
4 stalks celery, diced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup mayo
2 cups shredded cheese (I use cheddar/jack, use less if you like)
black pepper to taste
salt (you decide, I don't like salt)
garlic powder to taste
butter
olive oil

Heat oven to 350
In large skillet, brown chicken in olive oil and butter until partially cooked. Remove and lay into 13 x 9 baking dish (sprayed with PAM). Add broccoli around the chicken any which way you like.

To oil and butter (I add more butter now) in skillet, add your onion, celery and mushrooms (smells so good) and cook until onion is clear and wilting.

While veggies are cooking, mix cream, mayo, spices (I sometimes add some sour cream, too) and shreaded cheese. Stir it up.

Remove cooking veggies and lay across the chicken and broccoli. Then pour cream/mayo mix over all.

Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake at 350 for 40 minutes.

Let stand for 5 before serving.

I serve this with salad (and supplements and plenty of water). It makes enough for two people with leftovers for 2 lunches.

Don't have the counts, but check fitday if need be. I just know it's darn good....

ONE OF OUR MOST CRAVEABLE MEALS!

Try it!

Yummy! MAde this the other night. All my family loved it. Added the sour cream too! Wonderful!!
thanks for sharing!!

HELP ... !

When I've made this I never added the sour cream but I think I'd like to try it with some this time.

How much sour cream should I add? I don't want to ruin it or make it runny?

Donald,

You posted this years ago - but I recently purchased Karen's Low Carb Gourmet a few months ago, and this recipe is included in the cookbook.

Fast forward to October 2005, and I tried your recipe for the first time.

Um...

It was delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I'm making these dinners for people who aren't on LC, and others who are.

This turned out to be a real hit.

I just added some rice as a side for the non-LC people, and lots of fresh green salad for those who are...and everyone loved it.

Thank you so much for posting this recipe - and I'm really glad it was included in Karen's LCG cookbook.

We got a brand new dining room set the other day, and I cooked your casserole tonight to celebrate - complete with flowers and fancy dishes. A few candles added to the ambience. I know this is supposed to be one of those "family friendly" casserole type dishes, but I managed to make it extra special, and everyone was totally thrilled with "LC chicken casserole from Sara's new cookbook".

Thanks! It really was a wonderful meal.

I'm gonna hafta go hunting through my cookbook looking for more "Donald" recipes.

This sounds like one for the books! Receipe book that is
