Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3 (ZReboot) recipe. You’ll love this comfort food dish when you want to eat curled up on the sofa watching a movie. It’s also a hit with the little kids and people who don’t like spicy food. You can even leave out the garlic if you want.

Servings: Serves up to 6 with full dinner servings. On a buffet it will produce a good 12 scoops.

Ingredients:

• 3 boneless and skinless chicken breasts cut into 1” cubes
• 1 Tbl of olive oil
• 3 cups of broccoli cut into bite-sized pieces
• 3 tsp of minced garlic  (jar garlic will do fine)
• ¼ cup of butter
• 18 oz of cream of mushroom soup. I use organic so there is better quality ingredients in the can.
• 1 Tbl of Italian seasoning
• ½ cup of cream
• ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese
• 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms
• 2 cups of shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (or a mix)
• 6 pieces of bacon, cooked til crisp and diced

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a large sauté pan add the olive oil and the chicken chunks. Cook on medium till no pink remains. In a medium pot put in a few inches of water and bring to a boil. Put in broccoli bits and cook for just 1 minute until it’s bright green. Drain. These things can be done at the same time.

Back to the chicken. When it’s cooked, pour it into a 9″ x 13″ casserole. When the broccoli is done you can pour that in with the chicken and let them sit.

Use the same sauté pan and add the butter and garlic. Then add the soup, the Italian seasoning, the cream and the Parmesan cheese. Heat until it’s all well mixed and hot. Add the mushrooms and stir. Pour this mixture over the chicken and broccoli. Spread the cheese on top and then sprinkle on the bacon bits.

Bake in your oven for 20-30 minutes til it’s hot, bubbly and beginning to brown on top. Serve in bowls.

This makes a great buffet dish at your local pot luck too!

Enjoy!

Cheers,
