Ingredients
- 3 boneless chicken breasts cubed into bite-sized pieces, skinless
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 2 tablespoons garlic minced
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups chicken stock 720 g
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded, divided
- 1 cup Monterey jack cheese shredded, divided, 113 g
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese shredded, divided, 100 g
- 8 ounces rigatoni noodles
- 1 head broccoli cut into florets (about 2 ½-3 cups
- parsley for garnish, freshly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Season chicken cubes all over with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- In a large, 15-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. The chicken will not be completely cooked through.
- Transfer chicken to a plate and tent to keep warm.
- Reduce the heat of the skillet to medium-low. Add onions. Cook until softened (about 3 minutes). Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
- Sprinkle flour over the onion mixture, and whisk to combine. Pour in the chicken stock, followed by heavy cream, whisking constantly. Increase heat to medium. Simmer for 6-8 minutes or until the mixture has reduced and thickened slightly.
- To the skillet, add ½ cup of mozzarella, ½ cup of Monterey jack, and ½ cup of parmesan cheese. Stir to combine.
- Add uncooked noodles, broccoli, and seared chicken. Stir to combine, making sure the noodles, broccoli, and chicken are all covered with the sauce.
- Top with the remaining cheeses, cover with aluminum foil, and transfer to the oven. Bake for 24-27 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, the pasta is tender, and the sauce is bubbly. The chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Remove the foil. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese has browned.
- Serve garnished with parsley.
