Chicken Divan

Chicken Divan is a chicken casserole usually served with broccoli, almonds, and Mornay sauce. It was invented at and named for the by-gone Divan Parisian Restaurant in the New York Chatham Hotel. The Divan Parisian served Chicken Divan as its signature dish in the early twentieth century. Chicken Divan is now commonly prepared with regular Parmesan cheese and remains one of the most classic American casserole dishes today.
