Paige's College Chicken Divan

This is a great potluck supper idea. While at college, my niece would visit me and we'd spend the day cooking to stockpile her dorm freezer for the month with 3-5 different recipes. This was her favorite! Instead of using a carrerole dish, we would evenly divide the ingredients among sealable, boilable bags (omitting the stuffing), label and freeze. On busy study nights, she would reheat them in the microwave.

Steps

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Spray 9x12x2-inch casserole with non-stick cooking spray.
If using fresh broccoli , cut into florets and steam for about 1 minute , drain , or thaw frozen broccoli and drain well.
Place broccoli in prepared dish in single layer.
Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Spray frying pan with cooking spray.
Saute chicken about 3 minutes.
Add celery , onion and garlic and cook an additional minute , but do not brown garlic.
Place chicken mixture on top of broccoli.
Mix soup , mayonnaise , pimentos , seasoned salt , basil , italian seasoning , and bouillon together and pour over chicken.
Sprinkle cheese on top.
Sprinkle dry stuffing mix on top of cheese.
Cover and bake about 25 minutes or until hot.
Uncover and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until the stuffing is lightly browned on top.
Let sit 5 minutes before serving.
This can be frozen for once-a-month / bulk cooking.
