🍗🥦🍚 Chicken Broccoli Rice 🍗🥦🍚



The One-Pan Wonder 🧀🍗🥦

Ingredients:

🐔 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (chopped into bite-sized greatness)
🥦 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen, we don’t judge)
🍚 1 cup long-grain white rice (the fluffy foundation of happiness)
🧀 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, but let’s be real—cheese is never optional)
🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced (the key to unlocking flavor heaven)
🧂 Salt and pepper to taste
🤠 Optional: Ranch dressing (because why not?)

Instructions:

🔥 Step 1: Chicken First, Always

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  • Add diced onion and cook until it looks all soft and golden (3-4 minutes).

  • Toss in chicken pieces, season generously, and cook until beautifully browned and fully cooked (5-7 minutes).

  • Remove the chicken and set aside (try not to eat it all yet).

🍚 Step 2: Toast That Rice

  • In the same skillet (because we’re all about less cleanup), add the uncooked rice and stir it for about a minute to get that nutty, toasty flavor.

  • Pour in chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat.

  • Cover and simmer for 15 minutes while you resist the urge to peek.

🥦 Step 3: Broccoli & Cheese Party

  • After the rice has cooked, stir in the broccoli florets and return the chicken to the skillet.

  • Cover and let everything cook for another 5-7 minutes until the broccoli is tender and the rice is fully done.

🧀 Step 4: Bake to Perfection

  • Transfer everything to an oven-safe dish.

  • Sprinkle cheddar cheese all over like a generous gift.

  • Bake at 350˚F for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

🍽️ Step 5: Serve & Devour

  • Fluff it up with a fork, grab a plate, and enjoy your cheesy, comforting, ridiculously good Chicken Broccoli Rice!

🥄 Bonus Tip: Drizzle Ranch on top for an extra zing!

Enjoy, and prepare for second helpings! 😋
