Ingredients
1 yellow onion
1 lb broccoli
2 (10 oz) pkgs cubed chicken thighs
10 oz white rice
2 pkts chicken broth concentrate
2 (¼ oz) ranch seasoning Milk
3 (1 oz) panko Wheat
¾ oz grated Parmesan Milk
3 (2 oz) shredded cheddar-jack blend MilkHow to make it
1
Prep ingredients. Preheat oven to 400℉ with a rack in the center. Finely chop onion. Cut broccoli into 1-inch florets, if necessary. Microwave broccoli, covered, in a large bowl until bright green and tender, 2-4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside. Pat chicken dry; season all over with salt and pepper.
2
Cook chicken. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over high until shimmering; add chicken in a single layer. Cook, flipping pieces occasionally, until browned in spots, 2-3 minutes; transfer to a bowl. Lower heat to medium; add 2 tablespoons butter to skillet. Add onions and cook until softened, scraping up any browned bits, 5-7 minutes.
3
Cook rice. Add rice to skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until rice is translucent, about 1 minute. Add 4½ cups water, broth concentrate, ranch seasoning, and reserved chicken and any accumulated juices; bring to a simmer over high heat. Lower heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is nearly cooked through and liquid is mostly absorbed, about 20 minutes.
4
Top rice. In a medium bowl, microwave 4 tablespoons butter until melted. Add panko and Parmesan; mix until evenly combined. Remove rice from heat and stir in cheddar-jack cheese until melted; season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in broccoli; scrape down sides of skillet with spatula. Top with panko mixture.
5
Bake & serve. Bake skillet on center rack until sauce is bubbling around edges and top is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool for at least 5 minutes before digging in. Enjoy!
6
Make it saucy!. We love the cheesy ranch vibes in this one skillet dinner. Double down on those flavz with a drizzle of ranch, or add a hint of spice with a hit of your favorite hot sauce. We'll never judge you for saucing it up!
