Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts cubed
- 12 ounces jumbo shell pasta 1 box
- 2 cups cream of chicken soup about 1⅓ cans
- ½ cup milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 2 cups chopped fresh broccoli florets
- 1½ cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- In a large pan bring 4 cups of water to a boil then add jumbo shells. Cook to al dente, about ten minutes. Remove from heat and strain.
- In a small saucepan, mix the cream of chicken soup, milk, butter, and curry powder together over low heat. Let warm over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover the bottom of a 9x13-inch casserole dish with a thin layer of sauce.
- In a large bowl, mix the cooked chicken, broccoli, and 1 cup of shredded cheese together. Fill each shell with the chicken broccoli mixture and place in the baking dish.
- Once all shells are filled pour the remaining sauce evenly over the shells then sprinkle the remaining cheese over top. Bake in the oven at 400°F for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
