A very good friend of mine is trying to eat healthier and I started thinking to myself… I am too dang old to not be eating healthy. So, I am back on the bandwagon again. I rejoined Weight Watchers and have been on the lookout for healthy recipes or recipes that I can makeover to be healthier. Last night, we had this delicious Chicken and Broccoli Gratin… at only 5 SmartPoints™ and 165 calories per serving, you can’t go wrong with this one! Enjoy!
Chicken and Broccoli Gratin
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 packages steamer-bag type frozen broccoli cuts
2 cans 98% fat-free cream of chicken soup
1/4 cup Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons Creole seasoning, optional
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1/4 cup evaporated milk
Saute chicken in a large, non-stick skillet (add a little bit of water, as needed to ensure the chicken does not burn) until juices run clear and internal temperature of the chicken is at least 165°F. Meanwhile, steam broccoli in microwave according to package directions. Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut chicken into bite size pieces and return to skillet; season with Creole seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir in broccoli, cream of chicken soup and evaporated milk until combined well. Pour into a 13 x 9″ baking dish prepared with baking spray and spread evenly. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Bake, uncovered, in the oven for 15 – 20 minutes (or until bread crumbs are lightly browned.)
