  • Then roll them a bit and allow them to crust on the other side. You don’t have to brown them evenly you just want a nice crust on a side or two.
  • In a small bowl mix the cream of chicken soup with a can of water. Add the soup water mixture to skillet, watch out its going to be hot. Bring the soup to a boil.

  • Add the bag of frozen broccoli. The soup will be your gravy so if you want it thinner add a splash more water (I added about ¼ more of the can). Bring back up to a boil then cover and reduce to simmer. Simmer for about 10 minutes until broccoli is cooked.
