Cheesy Broccoli and Rice Comfort Bake
Ingredients:
3 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups broccoli florets, chopped
1 can (10.75 oz) cream of mushroom soup
1 cup sour cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a saucepan, bring chicken broth to a boil. Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sautéing until translucent.
Steam broccoli until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
In a large bowl, mix cooked rice, sautéed onion and garlic, broccoli, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, and paprika.
Transfer mixture to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Top with remaining cheese and sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over the top.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
