Chicken – Wild Rice – Broccoli One-Dish Meal

1 1/2 pounds chicken pieces (boneless and skinless)

2 cups cooked rice

2 cups broccoli

1 can chicken broth

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional)

If you don’t have leftover rice, cook it according to package directions. While it is cooking, cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, trimming off any fat.

Heat about a tablespoon of oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until it is no longer pink. Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth, cover and let simmer for about 12 minutes.

By now, your rice should be done. Drain and add to the chicken, along with the broccoli. Mix with the chicken, cover and let simmer about five minutes.

Turn off heat then spoon in cream of mushroom soup, blending well. Cover and let sit just a minute to make sure soup is heated throughout then serve. We like to sprinkle a little cheese (cheddar or colby-jack) on top of ours.

The best part about this is that clean-up is a snap.

Serves 6-8 (depending how starving they are!)
