Chicken Broccoli Casserole Recipe with Shredded Thighs and Avocado Mayo

This chicken and broccoli casserole is delicious, nutritious, and super easy to make. Begin by preheating the oven to 375°F, then boiling one to two bags of frozen broccoli. Next, you’re going to set the broccoli aside while you continue the meal.

Then boil boneless, skinless chicken thighs for 20 to 30 minutes. Next, you’re going to shred the chicken until it’s nice and fine. We’re going to add a half to one cup of mayo.

I used avocado mayo here. We’re going to mix all of the ingredients together and continue mixing until it’s mixed thoroughly throughout. Next, we’re going to add our favorite seasonings such as salt and/or pepper, and then we’re going to spoon all of the ingredients of the casserole into an oven-safe dish.
