Chicken-Broccoli Casserole

4 chicken breast (pounded thin and cut into pieces)
3 packages frozen broccoli, cooked
1/3 cup parmesan cheese

Sauce
6 tablespoons butter
3 cups chicken broth
6 tablespoons of flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons sherry
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Melt butter: add flour to make paste. Add stock slowly. Add sherry, salt, and pepper. Cook only until it begins to thicken. Place chicken and broccoli in casserole alternately. Add sauce. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake 15 minutes at 425.

Notes: I always doctor recipes, here are my changes. If you follow the recipe exactly the sauce is thinner than I'd like so I try and make it a little thicker. I use 2 bunches slightly steamed fresh broccoli. I do not use all the butter called for; I use half the amount and chicken broth to make the sauce. This is in addition to the other 3 cups. I also add a little cooked pasta just to make it a more substantial dish but it is also fine without it. I don't layer the chicken and broccoli; I just mix it all together in a bowl with the sauce and pour it into a casserole dish.
