Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a large saucepan, melt Butter over medium heat. Whisk in Flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
Gradually whisk in Milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Cook until thickened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in Salt and Pepper into the Sauce.
In the prepared baking dish, combine Cooked Chicken, Frozen Broccoli, Cooked Rice, and Sauce. Mix well.
In a small bowl, combine Shredded Cheddar Cheese and Bread Crumbs. Sprinkle evenly over the casserole.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown.
