  • Classic chicken Divan consists of chicken breasts and broccoli spears in a cream sauce. This casserole varies slightly from the traditional recipe; frozen broccoli and chicken pieces are combined with a two-cheese cream sauce.
  • One 9-ounce package of refrigerated linguine can be used in place of the dried linguine. Use kitchen shears to snip the fresh noodles into short pieces.
  • Cooked turkey can be used in place of the cooked chicken.
