Chicken Rice Bake
Description
This Chicken Rice Bake gathers simple ingredients to create a one-dish meal featuring chicken breast cut into pieces, broccoli florets, and uncooked instant white rice. The chicken and broccoli are first cooked in a skillet with oil until the chicken is no longer pink. Chicken broth is added to the skillet, then rice, cream cheese, milk, Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and black pepper are stirred in to make a creamy base.
The mixture is transferred to a greased baking dish, topped with shredded Italian five cheese blend, covered, and baked in a preheated oven until the rice is tender and the cheese is melted. The result is a creamy casserole with tender chicken, soft broccoli, and cheesy topping.
This dish works well as a simple dinner option requiring minimal prep and combines protein, vegetable, and starch in one pan.
