Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup brown rice
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup broccoli florets

  • 1 cup shredded cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it’s ready for your casserole.

  6. Transfer the mixture into a greased casserole dish, adding shredded cheese on top if desired.

  8. Let the casserole cool slightly before serving.
