CHEESY BROCCOLI, CHICKEN AND RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine the panko and half of the cheese. Set aside.
• Heat the stock, milk, bay leaf and thyme in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until steaming. Keep warm while you prepare the vegetables. (You can skip infusing the liquid with the herbs if you like, but it does need to be warmed so it doesn't make lumpy gravy when you add it to the flour.)
• Heat the butter in a large ovenproof and flame-proof casserole or skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and celery. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper; cook until tender, stirring occasionally, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 45 to 60 seconds. Add the flour and stir to combine. (The mixture will be dry.)
• Remove the bay leaf and thyme from the stock mixture. Whisk the stock into the flour and vegetables. Add the remaining cup of cheese and stir until smooth. Add the rice and stir to combine. Add the sour cream, cayenne and nutmeg; stir until smooth. Place the 6 pieces of chicken in the casserole and snuggle them into the rice. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and transfer to the oven. Bake until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the broccoli in a microwave-safe bowl with 1/4 cup of water. Cover and microwave until the broccoli is just tender and bright green, about 2 minutes, depending on the strength of your microwave. Drain the broccoli and keep warm.
• Once the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, remove the casserole from the oven and stir in the broccoli. (It's easiest if you transfer the chicken to a plate first, then stir in the broccoli, then pop the chicken back on top.) Smooth the top and sprinkle with the reserved panko-cheese mixture. Return to the oven and bake until the topping is golden brown, about 15 minutes longer. Place the casserole on a rack to cool slightly before serving.

GLUTEN FREE CHICKEN, BROCCOLI AND BROWN RICE CASSEROLE RECIPE

CHICKEN/RICE/BROCCOLI CASSEROLE IN ALFREDO SAUCE

• 2. Cook the rice according to package directions, and shave a few minutes off the cooking time.

• 4. Cut up the broccoli into bite-sized pieces and reserve.
• 5. Chef's Tip: We will leave the broccoli raw, when adding to the casserole. The results are just the perfect amount of crunch.
• 6. Clean the mushrooms, remove the stems, and then thinly slice.
• 7. Finely dice the onions, and reserve. I forgot to take a photo of this step. My Bad.
• 8. Add two tablespoons of butter to a skillet over medium high heat.
• 9. Add the sliced mushrooms and diced onions, to the pan.
• 10. Sauté the mushrooms and onions until tender, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• 11. Remove from pan, and reserve.
• 12. Remove the chicken from the brine, rinse, and then slice into bite-sized pieces.
• 13. Add two tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken until most of the pink is gone.

• 17. Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 350f (176c).
• 18. THE ALFREDO SAUCE
• 19. In the skillet add the butter, and melt over medium heat, until the foaming subsides.
• 20. Add the minced garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• 21. Chef's Note: Keep the garlic moving, and don't allow to brown or burn.
• 22. Add the cream cheese to the pan, and begin to whisk into the garlic.
• 23. Chef's Tip: If you use low-fat cream cheese, it will taste a bit grainy after making the sauce.
• 24. Stir using a whisk until the mixture is smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
• 25. Chef's Note: It may look a bit curdled at first, but keep whisking, and it will smooth out nicely.
• 26. Add the milk, about a 1/4-cup at a time, and whisk until each addition is fully incorporated.

• 29. Whisk until fully incorporated.
• 30. Add the rice, broccoli, mushrooms, onions, and chicken to a large bowl.

• 32. Pour the ingredients into a baking dish.
• 33. Top with the panko breadcrumbs.
• 34. Chef's Note: To kick it up a bit, I added some freshly ground black pepper, and some cayenne to the panko breadcrumbs before adding to the casserole.
• 35. Place into the preheated oven, and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
• 36. Chef's Note: Mine went the full 40 minutes, and in the last 10 minutes, I turned the oven temp up to 400f (205c), to brown the top a bit.
• 37. Chef's Note: This came out exactly the way that I hoped it would. The dish had just the right amount of seasoning without being too heavy. And it wasn't too wet or too dry.
• 38. Serve with a nice side salad, and some crusty French bread. Enjoy.
• 39. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
