Quick One-Pot Chicken Broccoli Bake

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Place the chicken breasts in the prepared dish and season with salt and pepper.
Arrange the broccoli florets around the chicken.
Pour the soup mixture evenly over the chicken and broccoli.
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil, sprinkle cheddar cheese on top, and bake an additional 15–20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Serve hot and enjoy the creamy, cheesy goodness!

Crispier Topping: Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end, watching closely to prevent burning.
Thicker Sauce: Stir in 1 tablespoon of flour to the soup mixture before pouring.
Extra Flavor: Sauté chicken briefly before baking.
Even Cooking: Cut chicken into uniform pieces to ensure consistent cooking.

Swap chicken breasts for boneless, skinless thighs for a juicier, richer flavor.
Add cooked pasta for a heartier, one-dish meal.
Experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella, Parmesan, or pepper jack for a fun twist.
