This chicken, broccoli, and rice skillet is a complete dinner in one dish–entrée, vegetable, and rice–essentially a casserole that does not heat up the whole kitchen, and cheese tops it off. It's a great choice for family weeknights.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small onion , diced
  • 1 boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 0.25 cups orzo , optional
  • 1 box garlic and herb rice mix , 6.3 ounce
  • 1.75 cups chicken broth
  • 0.5 cups milk
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup , 10.5 ounce
  • 0.5 teaspoons oregano
  • 0.5 teaspoons garlic
  • 12 ounces broccoli florets
  • 1 cup sharp Cheddar cheese

  1. 1

    Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, cut chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Add chicken to the skillet; cook and stir until golden, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add orzo and rice with seasoning packet to skillet. Stir chicken broth, milk, cream of chicken soup, oregano, and garlic together in a medium bowl; pour mixture into skillet. Stir to combine; add broccoli florets.
