I made this chicken and broccoli casserole for my wife and two young boys and they just loved it. It was very flavorful and creamy.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 ½ cups water

  • 1 ½ cups uncooked instant rice

  • 2 large cooked chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes

  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets

  • 2 (10.5 ounce) cans condensed cream of broccoli soup

  • 1 cup milk

  • 1 tablespoon Italian-seasoned bread crumbs

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add rice, stir, cover, and remove from the heat. Let sit until water is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  3. Transfer rice to a casserole dish and mix with chicken and broccoli.

  4. Combine condensed soup, milk, bread crumbs, garlic powder, and pepper in a mixing bowl; mix until well combined. Add to the casserole dish along with 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese; mix to combine. Sprinkle remaining Cheddar over top.

  5. Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until heated through and bubbly, about 30 minutes.
