Ingredients
- 4 cups cooked white rice
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cans condensed cream of chicken soup 10.5 oz each
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 8 oz cream cheese softened and cubed.
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 2/3 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- Chopped parsley for garnish optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
- Steam the broccoli florets until they are just tender. You can do this by placing them in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 5-7 minutes or until they are bright green. Once steamed, remove from heat and set aside.
- In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and softened cream cheese until well combined and smooth.
- Add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to the sauce mixture. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is well combined.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked white rice, steamed broccoli florets, and cheese sauce. Stir until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
- In a small bowl, mix together the Italian breadcrumbs and the 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
- Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is golden brown.
- Optional: Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
