Chicken and Broccoli In White Sauce
Chicken and Broccoli In White Sauce is a savory Asian recipe that uses a creamy sauce. Your family will fall in love with it!
Do you love chicken and broccoli as much as I do? Goodness, I just love it. This is the chicken and broccoli recipe I love dearly and I have gotten such nice comments, emails and messages about it – I’m so glad you love it as much as I do!
I was in Chinatown a few weeks ago where I was feeling hungry after acupuncture so I ran across the street to a shop called “Excellent Dumpling House”. There I got some Chinese takeout goodies to go, along with a amazing pork dumpling. While I was waiting for my order to be done so many people came in and ordered the Chicken and Broccoli in White Sauce. My eyes rose every time someone ordered it, I had never heard of this at a Chinese restaurant. So I did what everyone else would do, I took out my phone and begun googling furiously.
In the next week, something was telling me to make this dish. I received not one, but two completely random comments and email asking me if I had a Chicken and Broccoli in White Sauce recipe. Can you believe that? First in line, then real life questions. It’s like I was meant to make this.
This is a great dish that is creamy and full of yummy vegetables (hello broccoli, sugar snap peas and carrots). It’s more rich than your usual Chicken and Broccoli due to the sauce which is made with heavy cream and Parmesan cheese.
Next time you’re in the mood for Chicken and Broccoli, give this dish a shot, I hope you enjoy!

Wow, what a weird coincidence! Obviously you were meant to make this…and now since I’m reading this, I’m meant to make it to 🙂
This looks delicious. I love that you still have veggies in the winter! 🙂
oh this looks soooo good I’m all about covering my veggies in a delicious sauce, it makes you eat so much more of them doesn’t it!
I think this sounds delicious. Pinned. And yes, I think chicken and broccoli make great partners. And I’ve got some ream in the fridge that’s still good from the holidays. Thanks for the recipe.
This looks so absolutely delicious!! I would totally devour this for dinner, maybe with some brown rice. Perfection!
I feel like my parents used to order this a lot when we got Chinese take-out! But I haven’t had it in years. Looks like a great rendition of it!
This looks amazing! Looks so creamy and yummy, I would definitely eat more vegetables if they were in a creamy white wine sauce! 🙂
I do, I do, and carrots too! This looks so delicious, Pamela.
You’ve introduced me to something new Pamela. This sounds wonderful. And I love seeing your garden in winter, how amazing!
maan those garden you got is impressive. Chicken and broccoli is one of my fav thing to get at Chinese restaurants too although I have had it with Asian sauce only. Well since you mentioned dairy free diet, you should try making cauliflower sauce or something.
Mmmm. Creamy and delicious looking recipe. I have a feeling my kids would gobble these veggies right up.
Fresh vegetables, I know it was good and since it’s been cold. Great way to warm up! I am loving the hair by the way.. Your hair is reminding me of a few anime characters.. I think I am watching to much Fairy tale but I am loving the hair! 🙂
So simple yet so so good. That’s what some of the best recipes are. Looks delish.
So hard to believe you’re still growing veggies even in this climate. You go girl!
This looks yummy. I’ve started using more broccoli and I’ll definitely include this recipe.
That’s a beauty! Love the idea of growing vegetables on the roof top, so big-city! 🙂 ela
cooking with ones own harvest is so unparalleled both in the terms of the freshness,the joy it gives and the delectable taste of dishes….a wonderful and comforting dish,thanks for sharing 🙂
I love your writing, so positive. And I like chicken with broccoli indeed.
Oh, this is such a comforting, hearty dish! I love brocolli and cream, and, of course, chicken is always a welcome addition, especially if you have to feed a guy! 😉
This sounds really good and so glad your veggie garden is doing so well 🙂
What a simple, but perfect dish! And how lucky are you to have fresh veggies!
I always have these ingredients on hand….I need to add this to our dinner menu ASAP!
Oh yeah, this looks like my kind of dish! We have broccoli and carrots growing now but haven’t been able to pick any yet.
Love chicken and broccoli but have never tried it with white sauce, looks and sounds delicious:) That’s so awesome that you’re still growing veggies in the winter too!
