Creamy Cheesy Chicken Broccoli Skillet

12 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 3 chicken breasts, cooked and diced
  • 2 (8 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup (although you can substitute cream of broccoli, broccoli cheese, or cheddar cheese soup)
  • 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
  • 1 (8 ounce) can evaporated milk or 8 ounces half-and-half
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (any variety, although I have found a cheddar or colby-jack blend works best)
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 2 cups frozen broccoli florets
  • Served over
  • egg noodles or rice

Directions

  1. 1
    Cook chicken and allow to cool. Dice and set aside or use canned chicken and drain.
  2. 2
    Mix the soup, sour cream and milk in a mixing bowl with the seasonings listed. Put on stovetop on medium-low and add chicken. Stir occasionally until slightly bubbly. Add the cheese and cook until melted, stirring occasionally. Set temperature to simmer until noodles or rice are done.
  3. 3
    Put frozen broccoli in a microwave safe dish and cook, covered until thawed, (usually about 3-5 minutes, depending on microwaves). Drain, if needed, and pour and stir into chicken mixture. (One thing I have done is, I line a glass bowl or dish with about 4 paper towels, and pour the frozen broccoli on the towels. I then cover the dish, and nuke for about 4-6 minutes. When it's done, the broccoli doesn't need draining because the towels absorbed all the liquid from the frozen broccoli).
  4. 4
    Prepare egg noodles or rice as directed on packaging.
  5. 5
    Serve creamy, cheesy mixture over noodles or rice. I imagine you could serve it over stuffing as well, although I have yet to try it that way. Serve with a salad. Enjoy!
