Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Bake

Ok so this is my favorite recipe on here... I just have problems making the rice steam correctly, as other comments have said. I start by cooking the rice in the chicken broth, and about 5 minutes before the rice would typically be done, I dump the whole thing into the casserole dish. I also use a pound of chicken breast tenderloins for more servings.

As per the recommendation of another user, I set the temperature to 400, and decided to add an additional 1/2 can of Cream of Chicken to the mixture. I premixed everything in a large bowl before spreading it in the casserole dish. This just mixed the ingredients evenly and soaked the rice so that it cooked thoroughly. Delicious! A great meal for the family.

So this recipe overall tasted good. But the rice definitely did not cook right. It was still pretty crunchy even though I added all the right ingredients. I ended up baking it for like three hours which made the chicken kinda tough. I don’t know what went wrong but it seemed like a pretty big effort for little result

Really tasty and overall easy dinner recipe. To avoid the rice being crunchy, I would just add more chicken broth, or even just stir the rice thoroughly to make sure the rice is completely submerged.
