This is a super good little
side dish that goes with just about anything. I love that it's a
one-pot-wonder, too! It's always nice to have recipes like this in your
files that you can pull out at a moment's notice, right? You can also
add some diced cooked chicken to this to make it a meal. How yummy would
that be?
One Pot Cheesy Broccoli Rice
1 small onion ~ diced
1 clove garlic ~ minced
4 tablespoons butter ~ divided use
1 cup long grain rice
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups fresh broccoli florets
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
In a medium sauce pan, saute the onion and garlic in 2 tablespoons of the butter...about 3 minutes.
Add the rice to the pot then pour in the chicken broth and cook according to package directions.
Stir in cheeses, the rest of the butter and salt and pepper.
Stir in the broccoli until combined.
Allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving so broccoli can soften a bit.
