Broccoli Chicken Rice Casserole Low Fat Recipes

BROCCOLI, RICE, CHEESE, AND CHICKEN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Mix in the instant rice, cover, and remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes.
• In a 9x13 inch baking dish, mix the prepared rice, chicken, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, butter, milk, broccoli, onion, and processed cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Stir halfway through cooking to help cheese melt evenly.

ONE POT BROCCOLI, CHICKEN AND RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Melt butter and heat oil in a pot over high heat. Add onion and garlic, cook for 1 minute. Add chicken and cook until it changes from pink to white. (Note 5)
• Turn stove DOWN to medium. Add flour and stir for 1 minute.
• Add half the milk, stirring as you go, and once incorporated into the flour add the rest of the milk and stir.
• Add broth, rice, thyme and a just pinch of salt and pepper.
• Stir, bring to simmer, then cover. Turn down to medium low and cook for 12 minutes.
• Remove lid - there should still be liquid on the surface. Working quickly, add broccoli, push down so it's partly submerged, cover and cook for a further 3 minutes until broccoli is just cooked.
• Preheat grill/broiler. Remove lid and stir through half the cheese - don't worry if it looks a bit too saucy, excess liquid gets sucked up in minutes (see video). Smooth surface, top with remaining cheese. Grill/broil until melted (or just put lid on and allow to melt with residual heat on turned off stove).
• Serve immediately, garnished with parsley if desired.
