      Title: Chicken Divan
 Categories: Poultry, Vegetables, Cheese, Wine
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
  1 1/2 lb Chicken breast; boned,
           - skinned
      1 tb Extra-virgin olive oil
      2 c  Diced leek; white & lt green
           - only
    1/2 ts Salt
      5 tb All-purpose flour
     14 oz Can  chicken broth
      1 c  Milk
      2 tb Dry sherry
    1/2 ts Dried thyme
    1/2 ts Fresh ground pepper
     20 oz Chopped broccoli; thawed
           +=OR=+
      1 lb Broccoli crowns; chopped
      1 c  Grated Parmesan; divided
    1/4 c  Mayonnaise
      2 ts Dijon mustard
 
  Set oven @ 375ºF/190ºC.
  
  Coat a 7" X 11" (2 quart) glass baking dish with cooking
  spray.
  
  Place chicken in a medium skillet or saucepan and add
  water to cover. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Cover,
  reduce heat to low and simmer gently until the chicken is
  cooked through and no longer pink in the center, 10 to 12
  minutes. Drain and slice into bite-size pieces.
  
  Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high
  heat. Add leek and salt and cook, stirring often, until
  softened but not browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add flour; stir
  to coat. Add broth, milk, sherry, thyme and pepper and
  bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Add broccoli;
  return to a simmer. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup
  Parmesan, mayonnaise and mustard.
  
  Spread half the broccoli mixture in the prepared baking
  dish. Top with the chicken, then the remaining broccoli
  mixture. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1/2 cup
  Parmesan. Bake until bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool
  for 10 minutes before serving.
  
  Tips: To clean leeks, trim and discard green tops and
  white roots. Split leeks lengthwise and place in plenty of
  water. Swish the leeks in the water to release any sand or
  soil. Drain. Repeat until no grit remains.
  
  Sherry is a type of fortified wine originally from
  southern Spain. Don't use the "cooking sherry" sold in
  many supermarkets--it can be surprisingly high in sodium.
  Instead, purchase dry sherry that's sold with other
  fortified wines in your wine or liquor store.
  
  Ingredient Note: Most supermarkets sell broccoli crowns,
  which are the tops of the bunches, with the stalks cut
  off. Although crowns are more expensive than entire
  bunches, they are convenient and there is considerably
  less waste.
