Great recipe! I tried it for the first time tonight, and everyone loved it! I increased the curry powder to 1 tsp, added 1/2 tsp of Garam Masala, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1 clove minced garlic, and about 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese to the chicken mixture. I also sprinkled about a third cup of slivered almonds on top before adding the bread cubes and melted butter. I served it over steamed basmati rice. Delicious and definitely a keeper!!

My family really likes this casserole. I do tweak it some based on my family's likes, but the tweaks are so easy. The basic premise of this recipe is great. I use some garlic powder instead of the curry powder, and I add cheddar cheese. Instead of the bread crumbs, I use crushed ritz crackers. So good.

This casserole was very simple and the flavors were good. I was skeptical about the mayo but it worked fine - no real tangy taste. Will make again!

I baked mine a little too long (old oven), but it was still tasty! I'm not a huge fan of parmesean cheese, so I used some colby instead. Still great!

I think I just ate the best thing I've ever made. I boiled new potatoes with the broccoli and increased the curry to 1whole teaspoon. I made my own cream sauce with butter flour and milk to save on the saltiness of canned soup. I skipped the bread cubes entirely. Oh and I only had the dried parmesan, the kind you sprinkle on pasta and it turned out fabulous!! It's July 3 and my kitchen is a hot mess and so am I, but I will definitely make this in the winter as one of my comfort food casseroles. thank you for this recipe.

My family loved it. I used unsalted crackers on top. Worked okay for us. Didn't want to take time to make breadcrumbs.

I want to take this to a friend. Will it work well to mix it and refrigerate it overnight without baking it?
