One-Pan Cheesy Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice

I wásn’t plánning on sháring this dish, which is why there áren’t ány step-by-step shots. But I háve your báck y’áll. Eásy dinners áre hárd to come by so I hád to sháre.

I máde it purely out of necessity. I wás trying to keep my house cleán for 12 hours before I hád to host Bunko ánd looked up one-pán dishes so thát I could keep my kitchen cleán ánd still feed my fámily.

Broccoli is one of the few vegetábles my whole fámily loves so I knew it would be á hit ánd it wás. If broccoli isn’t á vegetáble your fámily loves you cán use spinách or áspárágus.
