Chicken & Artichokes / Cookie Dough Brownies

Chicken & Artichokes over Rice
(thanks to Paige Storheim, a friend from Rochester, NY)

3-4 chicken breasts, cooked and diced
1 can cream of celery
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1/4 c. milk
1/2 c. whipping cream OR evaporated milk
**I usually don't have whipping cream or evaporated milk on hand, so I just do a total of 1/2 c. milk
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. Worchestershire sauce
2 Tblspn. sherry (I never have this, so I just use the brine/marinade from the artichokes)
1 c. parmesan cheese, grated
2 cans artichoke hearts, drained and cut into bite size pieces
**I LOVE the huge jar of artichoke hearts sold at Costco. They are in a great tasting marinade and come in handy for all of the artichoke recipes I make. MUCH cheaper than individual cans and MUCH better flavor

Mix all ingredients together.
Pour into a 9 X 13 pan and sprinkle with bread crumbs.
Bake at 350 degrees until bubbly (about 1/2 hour).
Serve over rice.
