For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of garlic powder or onion powder to the cracker topping.
To prevent the cracker topping from burning, you can tent the casserole dish with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Feel free to substitute the Cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese, such as Monterey Jack or Gruyere.
If you prefer a lighter casserole, you can use reduced-fat cream of chicken soup and cottage cheese.
Freshly steamed broccoli can be used instead of frozen for a brighter flavor.
