Poppy Chicken

Poppy Chicken
Ingredients
1 to 1 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced into roughly 1 inch pieces
1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup garlic powder
oil
1 bag of frozen broccoli spears
3/4 cup mayo
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tsp poppy seeds
roughly 3 to 4 cups of shredded cheese (I usually use a mix of sharp cheddar and Italian blend)

1. Preheat oven to 425. Toss the chicken in the Parmesan Cheese and garlic powder until evenly coated. Brown in batches in oiled pan over med hi heat.

2. While the chicken is browning, empty bag of broccoli into a microwave safe bowl and pop that bad boy in the micro for 7 to 8 mins, uncovered.

3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayo, cream, and seeds.

4. Spray a 9x13in baking pan with PAM (or generic equivalent), layer in the broccoli. Salt and pepper, and add a few pats of butter if you wish. Sprinkle with a light layer of Parmesan and garlic powder.

5. Distribute the chicken evenly over the broccoli, top with the mayo mixture (you probably won't have enough to cover the whole dish, but spread it as much as you can). Sprinkle with the shredded cheese and bake for 30-45 minutes, or until it reaches the level of doneness you like (Jake likes it browned and bubbly)
