How to cook it
-
Heat the oven to 400F and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
-
Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces and cook in a skillet with a little of the butter until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes, then set aside.
-
Cook the penne in the boiling water according to the package directions, adding the broccoli florets for the last 3 minutes, then drain.
-
Melt the remaining butter in a saucepan and whisk in the flour, cooking for a minute.
-
Gradually whisk in the milk and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes, then stir in half the cheddar and the mustard powder until melted.
-
Season with salt and pepper, then fold in the chicken, pasta, and broccoli.
-
Spoon into a baking dish, scatter with the remaining cheddar, and bake until golden and bubbling, about 20 minutes.
