Cajun Chicken and Rice - Carolina Style image

Excellent, juicy, divine chicken, rice and broccoli! A wonderful meal-in-one dish... Used this recipe on a Panthers vs. Saints football Sunday--in honor of the New Orleans Saints. Excellent game. I can't wait for the Panthers to play New Orleans again!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 -3 tablespoons cajun seasoning
1 1/4 cups uncooked white rice (do not use brown rice)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth
2 cups chopped broccoli, cooked and drained
3/4 cup shredded provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Sprinkle Cajun spice evenly on each chicken breast.
  • Place chicken breasts in vegetable oil-sprayed cooking dish (large sized).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine rice, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth and broccoli.
  • Pour this mixture on top and around chicken in casserole dish.
  • Cover with lid and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
  • Remove casserole from oven; top with shredded Provolone and continue baking (uncovered, this time!) about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  • NOTE: Unfortunately, brown rice does not perform as well as white in most recipes. Brown rice normally needs to be cooked nearly twice as long. For this reason, I do not recommend substituting brown rice for white in this particular recipe. :).

I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts for this recipe and they turned out great. The chicken was cooked through but still juicy.
