CREAMY CHEESY CHICKEN BROCCOLI SKILLET



Creamy Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Skillet image

This is a simple, easy recipe I make on nights when I don't feel like making something that's time consuming or when the weather is cold. I also substitute 3 cans (12 oz.) of chicken if I don't have time to cook the chicken breasts. Some variations yield different flavors, ( substituting cream of chicken for broccoli cheese, etc.) so be adventurous! :)

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 45m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 chicken breasts, cooked and diced
2 (8 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup (although you can substitute cream of broccoli, broccoli cheese, or cheddar cheese soup)
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 (8 ounce) can evaporated milk or 8 ounces half-and-half
1 1/2 cups milk
2 cups shredded cheese (any variety, although I have found a cheddar or colby-jack blend works best)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
2 cups frozen broccoli florets
egg noodles or rice

Steps:

  • Cook chicken and allow to cool. Dice and set aside or use canned chicken and drain.
  • Mix the soup, sour cream and milk in a mixing bowl with the seasonings listed. Put on stovetop on medium-low and add chicken. Stir occasionally until slightly bubbly. Add the cheese and cook until melted, stirring occasionally. Set temperature to simmer until noodles or rice are done.
  • Put frozen broccoli in a microwave safe dish and cook, covered until thawed, (usually about 3-5 minutes, depending on microwaves). Drain, if needed, and pour and stir into chicken mixture. (One thing I have done is, I line a glass bowl or dish with about 4 paper towels, and pour the frozen broccoli on the towels. I then cover the dish, and nuke for about 4-6 minutes. When it's done, the broccoli doesn't need draining because the towels absorbed all the liquid from the frozen broccoli).
  • Prepare egg noodles or rice as directed on packaging.
  • Serve creamy, cheesy mixture over noodles or rice. I imagine you could serve it over stuffing as well, although I have yet to try it that way. Serve with a salad. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you do, the chicken and broccoli will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent it from drying out.
  • Add the broccoli in the last few minutes of cooking: This will help to keep it crisp and tender.
  • Use a good quality cheese: This will also make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best enjoyed hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

This Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Skillet is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is packed with flavor and is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
