I initially met Rachel when she participated in my free 5-Day Meal Planning Challenge (you can still join the free challenge HERE if you're interested). Rachel was very active in the Facebook group, where she was kind enough to share a number of different meal ideas.
This Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole is one of Rachel's favorite easy dinner options, and after one look at the short ingredient list I knew that it would be a winner in my house as well!
Not only does it taste delicious, but Rachel's Dump-and-Bake Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole could not be easier!
How To Make Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole
You start by whisking together a can of Cream of Chicken Soup with some water in your dish.
Add the raw chicken, frozen broccoli florets (yes, still frozen!), and uncooked rice. I used baby broccoli florets because they're the perfect size for my kids to eat without even cutting them!
Season it all with salt and pepper, give it a stir, and cover the dish tightly with foil. That's it!
The rice cooks slowly in the pan, absorbing the liquid, releasing its starches, and creating this great creamy consistency. With an optional sprinkle of cheese on top, the end result is a one-pot Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole that looks (and tastes) like you spent hours slaving over a hot stove!
The meat is juicy, the broccoli is tender, and the dish is like a giant, comforting hug on a cool evening. Best of all, you only have to spend about 5 minutes dumping the ingredients into your pan. That's a major WIN!

Cooking Just for Two? Cut the ingredients in half and bake the casserole in an 8-inch square pan!
*Rachel's original recipe did not include the cheese. I just think it's a nice addition on the top, so add as much (or as little) cheese as you like -- it's certainly not necessary!
