CHEESY RICE CASSEROLE WITH TURKEY



Cheesy Rice Casserole with Turkey image

Gullah-Geechie cooking is all about one-dish meals, and this comforting rice casserole is just that. Instead of broccoli, which you'll commonly find in casseroles, I like to use a combination of shredded Brussels sprouts, carrots and red bell pepper for color and flavor.

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless turkey breast
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup half-and-half
One 8-ounce carton sour cream
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium red onion, diced (about 3 cups)
1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and thinly sliced (about 5 1/2 cups)
2 carrots, diced (1 1/4 cups)
1 red bell pepper, diced (1 cup)
1 1/2 cups parboiled rice
1 cup shredded sharp white Cheddar
2 cups shredded sharp yellow Cheddar
Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking dish
1 cup panko breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place the turkey breast on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Bake until the turkey is done, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool 5 minutes, then dice.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook until it bubbles and begins to smell nutty, about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the chicken stock and half-and-half. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sour cream and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, Brussels sprouts, carrots and bell pepper and sauté until the vegetables begin to become tender, about 5 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
  • Combine the vegetables, rice, turkey, white Cheddar and 1 cup yellow Cheddar in a large bowl. Spoon the mixture into a lightly greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a small bowl or microwave-proof glass measure, then add the panko and stir to combine. Sprinkle over the top along with the remaining cup yellow Cheddar.
  • Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until the liquid is absorbed, the rice is tender and the cheese is melted, about 15 more minutes.

Categories     Rice

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups white rice
3 cups water
2 chicken bouillon cubes
frozen chopped broccoli
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Boil water, adding bouillon cubes.
  • Add rice and cook covered on low heat.
  • While rice is cooking, cook broccoli according to directions on package.
  • Once rice is ready, remove from heat and stir in broccoli.
  • Add mayo, mix well.
  • Place half broccoli mixture in a large glass pan.
  • Cover mixture with half of cheese.
  • Layer remaining broccoli mixture in pan, followed by remaining cheese.
  • Cook at 350 degrees approx 25 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Cook the rice according to package directions. If you are using instant rice, follow the instructions on the package. If you are using regular rice, you will need to cook it in a pot with water for about 18 minutes or until it is tender.
  • Use fresh broccoli. Fresh broccoli will have a brighter color and a more crisp texture than frozen broccoli. If you are using frozen broccoli, make sure to thaw it before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli. Broccoli should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked broccoli will be mushy and bland.
  • Use a sharp knife to chop the vegetables. This will help you get even pieces of vegetables that will cook evenly.
  • Season the dish to taste. Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for this dish, but you can also add other seasonings to your liking, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the dish hot. Cheesy broccoli rice and turkey is best served hot, right out of the oven. You can garnish it with chopped parsley or green onions for a pop of color.

Conclusion:

Cheesy broccoli rice and turkey is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is a great way to use up leftover turkey or chicken, and it is also a budget-friendly meal. With its creamy cheese sauce, tender broccoli, and savory turkey, this dish is sure to be a hit.
