Cómo preparar Scratch Chicken Rice And Broccoli Casserole

  1. Submerge 1 (3-4 pound) whole, cleaned chicken in a large pot with enough water to cover halfway.
  2. Add 1 tablespoon sea salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 1 hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  4. Remove chicken from pot and set aside on a large cutting board. Reserve the chicken broth.
  5. Let the chicken cool completely until you can handle it with clean hands.
  6. Once cooled, shred or chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  7. Cool the chicken broth until a thin film forms on the surface.
  8. Carefully skim off the fat from the top of the broth.
  9. Add 1 cup of uncooked long-grain rice to the broth.
  10. Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-8 minutes, or until the rice is partially cooked (it will not be fully cooked at this stage).
  11. Do not drain the broth.
  12. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  13. In a large casserole dish, combine 2 cups broccoli florets, 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 cup chopped celery, and 1 medium chopped onion. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.
  14. Add the shredded chicken to the vegetables and dot with 4 tablespoons of butter (adjust to your liking).
  15. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  16. Stir in the hot rice and broth mixture until the ingredients are evenly distributed and the colors blend.
  17. Evenly distribute 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) over the top.
  18. Cover the casserole dish with foil.
  19. Bake for 1 hour, covered.
  20. Uncover and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is heated through.
  21. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
