I made a mistake when making this recipe but it actually turned out well and with extra sauce. I put a can of cream of mushroom in with the chicken/broccoli mixture. When I realized what I did, I went ahead a made the soup/milk mixture and put it in the bottom of the pan. It actually gave the recipe more sauce which I think would have been dry without the soup in with the chicken.
