INGREDIENTS:
- 1 pound chicken breast, cut into cubes
- 1 tablespoon of butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 5 cups of broccoli florets
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
For the Cheese Sauce:
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 ounces cream cheese
For the Topping:
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat a large, oven proof skillet to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon butter, cubed chicken and spices, stir so the chicken is coated with the spices.
- Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes or until it has browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet add the cheese sauce ingredients: butter, garlic, almond milk, cream cheese and 1 cup of the cheddar cheese. Heat over medium heat stirring occasionally. When the cream cheese has broken up whisk the mixture so it is completely smooth. A thick cheese sauce will form.
- Add the cooked chicken and broccoli to the skillet. Carefully stir so the mixture coats the chicken and broccoli well. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. This is important because the cheese sauce thickens as it cools.
