Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic minced
1/2 yellow onion diced (150g)
2 stalks celery diced (115g)
Salt/Pepper to taste
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
2/3 cup Greek yogurt 170g
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon mustard powder
28 g parmesan off the block
2 pounds cooked boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced
16 oz broccoli florets
15 Ritz crackers crumbled
56 g cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

In a sauce pan, over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and cook about 30 seconds before adding the onions and celery. Season with some salt and pepper and cook until the veggies are soft and translucent.
Stir in the flour (it will be clumpy). Slowly add the broth (about 1/4 cup at a time) bringing it to a light simmer as you continue to add more broth. Once all the broth is incorporated let it simmer 3-5 minutes to reduce.
Remove from heat and stir in the spices.
In a bowl, add some of the hot broth mixture to your Greek yogurt. Add about 1/4 cup at a time to warm up the Greek yogurt. Once the yogurt is warm, pour it all into the saucepan.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a 9X13 pan add the chicken and broccoli. Pour the broth mixture over the top and sprinkle on the parmesan cheese, crackers, and cheddar cheese.
Bake in the oven, covered for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 10-15 minutes until the top is nice and crispy.
