This is one of my easy casserole variations. The casserole mainly consists of chicken, broccoli and rice and can be served as a main dish. I've been told that my cooking would make any grandma proud. Hope you enjoy! Ingredients:
2 lbs chicken breasts |
1 lb frozen chopped broccoli |
3 cups cooked rice (1 cup uncooked becomes 3 cups cooked) |
1 lb of grated cheddar cheese |
2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup, condensed |
8 ounces sleeve ritz crackers |
2 eggs |
Directions:
1. Prepare 1 cup of rice according to cooking directions and, if you like, let the broccoli thaw in the meantime. It doesn't need to thaw and I find it comes out greener and fresher if you leave it frozen.
2. Begin cooking your chicken breasts. I use my Foreman grill but you can use a skillet or even bake it in the oven.
3. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
4. Chop or pull the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and put them in a large mixing bowl.
5. Add the broccoli, cooked rice, cheddar cheese, eggs, condensed soup, and a handful of Ritz cracker crumbs to the chicken and mix.
6. Place mixture in a deep 9X13 casserole dish and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes.
7. Remove from the oven and top with remaining Ritz crackers, crushed.
8. Bake an additional 5 minutes or until the crackers have slightly darkened.
