How to Make Chicken With Broccoli And Cheese
- Season chicken pieces generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Preheat a large heavy skillet or electric skillet to medium-high heat.
- Add olive oil to the pan. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
- Add minced garlic to the pan and sauté for approximately 2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Pour in chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits.
- Stir in the can of cheddar cheese soup until smooth.
- Add the cooked chicken and broccoli florets to the pan.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is tender-crisp.
- Uncover the pan, increase heat to medium, and stir in the shredded Swiss cheese. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Stir in half-and-half (optional) for a creamier sauce.
- Serve the creamy chicken and broccoli over cooked egg noodles. Enjoy!
