Sformato di pollo, broccoli e cheddar

Ingredienti

• 2 chicken breasts (cut in half lengthwise)
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
• 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
• Salt & pepper (to taste)
• 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cheddar soup
• 2 cups frozen broccoli (see note)
• 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Preparazione

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 375F and move the rack to the top third of the oven.

2. 2

   Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so you have 4 thinner pieces. Place them side-by-side in a 9x13 casserole dish. Sprinkle them with the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a bit of salt & pepper.

3. 3

   Spoon the condensed soup over top of the chicken (don't add water to it).

4. 4

   Place the frozen broccoli around the chicken.

5. 5

   Cover the casserole dish tightly with foil (or the oven safe lid the casserole dish came with if it came with one) and bake for 25 minutes.

6. 6

   Remove the foil and sprinkle the cheese on top (concentrate it on the chicken). Place it back in the oven, uncovered, for another 10-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (165F).

7. 7

   When serving, dish the chicken up first, and then give the broccoli a stir with the sauce as it does release some water while cooking. Season with extra salt & pepper as needed.
