  2. Cook the rice in the chicken broth according to package directions.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Gently fold in the broccoli florets and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese.
  5. Spread the mixture evenly into your prepared baking dish.

Notes

  • You can use leftover rotisserie chicken for extra speed.
  • If using frozen broccoli, do not thaw it completely; add it straight from the freezer for best texture.
  • For a richer flavor, substitute half the milk with heavy cream.
