By Leslie Blythe Casserole, Cheese, Chicken, Rice Baking
June 15, 2021 Over the years, I have had many personal chef clients. I cook many different meals and package them up for the freezer. This Cheesy Chicken & Broccoli Rice Casserole is something I made recently. This can also be made in one large casserole and it freezes really well. Prep: 20 mins Cook: 35 mins Yields: 8 Servings Ingredients 6 cups fresh broccoli, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 cups cooked white rice
Sauce
3 tablespoons butter
¾ cup onion, diced
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
½ teaspoon paprika
salt, to taste
3 tablespoons cream cheese
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded, divided Directions 1Preheat oven to 350° F.
2Cook onion and butter on medium-low heat until softened and translucent. Stir in flour, garlic powder and pepper. Cook an additional 2 minutes.
3Gradually pour in milk while whisking. Continue whisking over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and add dry mustard, paprika, cream cheese and 1½ cups cheddar cheese. Stir until melted.
4Place broccoli in boiling water for about 2 minutes. You still want it slightly crisp as it cooks more in the oven.
5Stir together rice, broccoli and cheese sauce. Place in a greased 2-quart casserole dish. Top with remaining cheese and bake 35 minutes or until bubbly and cheese lightly browned. close full screen 00:00 0 Reviews Cancel replyYour review ...All fields are required to submit a review.Your name ...
