Chickenricebroccoli Casserole In Alfredo Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place chicken into a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat and simmer until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, about 15 minutes.
• At the same time, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain. Drain cooked chicken and cut into bite-size pieces.
• Place chicken, noodles, Alfredo sauce, 1/2 mozzarella cheese, milk, onion powder, and garlic powder in a large bowl and mix well. Pour into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish. Layer remaining mozzarella cheese and Cheddar cheese on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until melted and bubbly, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray or butter.
• Place the chicken in a large pot with water to cover. Add some salt, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a low simmer and cook the chicken until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain the chicken, cover, and refrigerate until cool, or up to 24 hours. Shred.
• Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets, and boil until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Spread the rice in an even layer in the baking dish. Make a second layer with the broccoli. In a large bowl, mix the chicken soup, the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, shredded chicken, half the Cheddar and some salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the broccoli and top with the remaining Cheddar. Bake for 40 minutes; let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Butter an 11-by-14-inch or other 4-quart baking dish. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Put the chicken in a dutch oven or other large pot, then add the chicken broth, crushed garlic, lemon zest, rosemary sprigs and bay leaves. Partially cover and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook, partially covered, until the chicken is tender, 20 to 22 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve (you should have 2 cups liquid; if necessary, add a little water to make 2 cups). When the chicken is cool enough to handle, tear or shred into small pieces. Wipe the dutch oven clean.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until just al dente, adding the broccoli during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain the pasta and broccoli in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Let drain in the colander while you make the sauce.
• Melt the butter in the Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and cook until sizzling, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and stir to make a paste; cook until the flour is no longer raw, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the reserved 2 cups cooking liquid and the heavy cream; season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Return to a simmer, whisking to make a smooth sauce. Cook over low heat until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in 1 cup Parmesan, the parsley and lemon juice. Add the chicken, pasta and broccoli and stir to coat. Transfer to the baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and the mozzarella. Bake until the top is golden and the edges are bubbly, about 25 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Melt Spread in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken, in batches if necessary, stirring occasionally, until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Remove chicken and set aside.
• Stir Sauce and broccoli into same skillet. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer covered, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve over hot fettuccine and sprinkle, if desired, with grated Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Mix in the instant rice, cover, and remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes.
• In a 9x13 inch baking dish, mix the prepared rice, chicken, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, butter, milk, broccoli, onion, and processed cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Stir halfway through cooking to help cheese melt evenly.

Steps:

• 1. Gather your ingredients. At this point, I usually show you all the ingredients; however, since I started this recipe with no clear idea of what I was going to put into it... I didn't have a photo of the ingredients.
• 2. Cook the rice according to package directions, and shave a few minutes off the cooking time.
• 3. Chef's Note: Standard rice calls for twice the water to the uncooked rice. For this recipe of 1.5 cups of rice, use 1/3 less water.
• 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.
• 14. Remove chicken from the pan, and reserve.
• 15. Wipe the skillet out, and reserve for the Alfredo sauce.
• 16. Chef's Note: You could always do the Alfredo sauce in a nice sauce pan, but why bother... this keeps the kitchen mess down to a minimum.
• 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.
• 27. Chef's Tip: Many Alfredo sauces call for heavy cream, but resist that temptation. The cream will make this dish way too rich.
• 28. Add the Parmesan cheese; plus the pepper and salt, to taste
• 29. Whisk until fully incorporated.
• 30. Add the rice, broccoli, mushrooms, onions, and chicken to a large bowl.
• 31. Pour the Alfredo sauce over the ingredients, and fold together, until mixed.
• 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.
