Another Chicken Recipe

Apparently my family really likes chicken - it seems I'm always finding a new CHICKEN recipe to try...

Here's another one that they really liked. My darling husband says this one goes on the "make this again sometime" list. It doesn't really have a name yet, so if you have any suggestions I'm open.

unnamed baked chicken thing

Lightly grease/spray 9x13 pan
Place 4 or 5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts in pan
Top with a bag of frozen broccoli
In a saucepan, mix 1 container of Boursin "garlic and fine herbs" or "onion and shallot" cheese (I used chive and onion cream cheese, and it was excellent) and 1/3 cup milk until creamy. (*note*: you could use the LITE cheese and skim milk, too, and lighten the dish up quite a bit)
Pour half the cheese sauce over the broccoli.
Top with thin slices of ham, then the rest of the cheese sauce.
Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of Italian breadcrumbs and 3 T of Parmesan cheese.
Cover and bake at 350 for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake another 20 minutes or until the chicken is done.

I doubled the sauce recipe and served this with egg noodles. Even my younger son thought it was pretty good - and that doesn't happen very often!
