This dish was okay. I think it could've used a bit more flavor from somewhere - just not sure where. The crumble mixture on top didn't really add anything to it. I will hang on to it to use up leftover broccoli, but probably won't be a regular go-to meal.

I agree this was very lemony... My husband commented that it tasted like a weird chicken helper. It was okay, but I wont be making it again.

It was very lemony! Maybe only 1/2 tsp of lemon zest would give it lemon flavor without it being too over powering. This recipe is very similar to Lemon-Chicken Rigatoni.
