A comforting and easy-to-make cheesy chicken casserole featuring tender chicken, frozen broccoli, and rice baked to perfection with a creamy cheese sauce.
2 cups cooked white rice
2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
3 cups frozen broccoli florets, thawed
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, shredded chicken, and thawed broccoli florets.
In a separate bowl, mix together the condensed cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt until smooth.
Pour the soup mixture over the rice, chicken, and broccoli. Stir gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
Add 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese to the mixture and stir to distribute the cheese throughout.
Lightly grease a 9×13 inch casserole dish with olive oil.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving.
