Ingredients
3 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
4 cups fresh broccoli florets
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 packet (1 ounce) ranch seasoning mix
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup crushed buttery crackers (such as Ritz)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Steam the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the condensed cream of chicken soup, sour cream, mayonnaise, ranch seasoning mix, milk, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Add the shredded cooked chicken, steamed broccoli, cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese to the bowl. Mix gently until all ingredients are evenly coated with the ranch mixture.
Transfer the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the crushed buttery crackers with the melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the cracker topping evenly over the casserole.
Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
