Three comments about this recipe. (1) It's absolutely delicious! (2) I was afraid there wouldn't be enough sauce, so I made 1-1/2 times the amount called for (i.e., 6 tbsp butter and flour, 3 c. milk, 1 can condensed chicken broth + 1 c. water, and I used 4 eggs) and I'm glad I did -- I used every bit. (3) The 15 min prep time listed is quite wrong...by the time I chopped the chicken, the broccoli, the onion, minced the garlic, grated the mozzarella, made the sauce ... well,you get the picture. It took me almost an hour to prepare. But it was well worth the effort and I will definitely make this again -- my family LOVED it.

I really liked this too. I sprinkles with alot of red pepper flakes at the table - can't add in as I have little people to feed. I will definatly make this again.

This recipe needs to be more concise. It doesn't specify temperature to cook things on the stovetop in, nor what seasonings to use when. I made it and it was pretty darn awful.

I had a little trouble on this recipe with the "cheeses" on the directions list. I made the mistake of adding the shredded cheese to the flour and butter mixture instead of the parmesan, but it turned out okay. Just a little "gooier". Gooey is ALWAYS good in my book! I also added diced red pepper to the chicken and broccoli just for some color. Otherwise, a great recipe! Thanks Libby1!

This was a good recipe, but I thought the sauce was a little bland. I added extra ground red pepper, black pepper, and garlic powder to try and give it a boost. I took Lennie's advice and made 1 1/2 times the amount of sauce. It was about the perfect amount. I also added about twice the amount of minced garlic to the chicken cubes for extra flavor. Overall, I think this is a good recipe, and I will make it again with minor seasoning changes.
