If you like chicken and broccoli with cheese, then you are going to love this quick and easy Baked Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Casserole recipe! The inspiration for this casserole came from one of my favorite meals I used to make back in my twenties – baked chicken with a side of broccoli and cheese and some white rice. Those four foods tasted so good together, I figured why not combine them into one quick, and easy-to-make casserole? So I did. And my family loves it! I hope yours does, too!
Quick and Easy Baked Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Casserole Recipe
Baked Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Casserole Ingredients
- 3 Chicken Breasts, filleted
- 1 can of Ricos Aged Cheddar Cheese Sauce
- 1 can Cream of Chicken soup
- 3 cups Frozen Broccoli Florets
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions to Make Baked Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Casserole
Begin by preheating the oven to 400° F. Place the chicken breasts flat on the bottom of a baking dish. I prefer to use a 2qt pyrex because it fits 3 chicken breasts perfectly. Lightly season both sides of the chicken breasts with garlic, salt and pepper.
Next, place the frozen broccoli florets on top of the chicken breasts.
Then, in a medium bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup with Ricos Aged Cheddar Cheese Sauce, mixing well.
Now spread the cheese sauce evenly over the top of the broccoli, then top with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Place on the lower, middle rack in the oven for 45-60 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts this could take more or less time.
Keep an eye on it while it bakes, and if it gets to where you don’t want it to brown anymore, loosely cover with a piece of foil for the remainder of the cook time.
Once finished, serve over rice or pasta, and enjoy!
