If you enjoy chicken and broccoli recipes, you’ll love this easy Broccoli Bacon Cheddar Chicken dinner. All you do is throw chicken breasts in a casserole dish, then top with the rest of the ingredients and bake for 30 minutes!
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 chicken breasts (use 4 thin chicken breasts, or use 2 large chicken breasts, sliced in half, horizontally)
- salt and pepper
- 2 cups broccoli florets, blanched, chopped
- 6 strips bacon, cooked, chopped
- 1/3 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 400 F.
-
Grease the bottom of the casserole dish with olive oil. I used the the oval casserole dish measured 13 inches x 9 inches x 4 inches deep.
-
Add chicken breasts to the casserole dish. Note about chicken: use 4 thin chicken breasts, or use 2 large thick chicken breasts, sliced in half horizontally each to make 4 thin chicken breasts.
-
Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
-
Top with chopped and blanched broccoli florets.
-
Top with chopped cooked bacon.
-
Top with shredded Mozzarella cheese.
-
Top with shredded Cheddar cheese.
-
Bake, uncovered, for about 20-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. The cooking time will depend on the thickness of your chicken breasts.
