Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless chicken juicy and tender pieces
  • 20 oz broccoli florets cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese for a cheesy topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat a tablespoon of oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the boneless chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  3. While the chicken is cooking, cut the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and garlic salt until smooth.
  5. Once the chicken is cooked, add the broccoli florets to the skillet with the chicken.
  6. Pour the prepared sauce over the broccoli and chicken, spreading it evenly.
Baking
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the dish for 10 minutes.
  2. Remove from the oven and sprinkle mozzarella cheese generously on top.
  3. Return the casserole to the oven for an additional 7 minutes or until the mozzarella is slightly golden and bubbling.
Serving
  1. Serve immediately while the cheese is perfectly melted and the dish is warm.

Notes

For variations, consider adding spices like paprika or replacing heavy cream with Greek yogurt for a healthier twist. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or frozen for up to three months.
