ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 -3 tablespoons cajun seasoning
- 1 1⁄4 cups uncooked white rice (do not use brown rice)
- 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
- 1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth
- 2 cups chopped broccoli, cooked and drained
- 3⁄4 cup shredded provolone cheese
directions
- Sprinkle Cajun spice evenly on each chicken breast.
- Place chicken breasts in vegetable oil-sprayed cooking dish (large sized).
- In a mixing bowl, combine rice, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth and broccoli.
- Pour this mixture on top and around chicken in casserole dish.
- Cover with lid and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
- Remove casserole from oven; top with shredded Provolone and continue baking (uncovered, this time!) about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
- NOTE: Unfortunately, brown rice does not perform as well as white in most recipes. Brown rice normally needs to be cooked nearly twice as long. For this reason, I do not recommend substituting brown rice for white in this particular recipe. :).

<p>September 15, 2007: Here's a photo of me and my two girls before leaving our hotel room to go to an Avett Brothers concert. We're all huge fans of the group. We're also huge fans of each other. It's fun to have adult children. <br /> <br /> <br />--- About me: I'm an artist, and art teacher to kids kindergarten age through 8th grade. My life whirls at a breakneck pace. I teach approximately 800 students, and have 30 different classes each week. It's crazy!!! The rewards, however, are the numerous hugs and good vibes I get from my students. If I didn't have my good-looking husband to stabilize me, I'd surely be sporting a straight-jacket. Oh, and did I mention my yarn obsession? I've made hundreds of crochet items in the past few months, and have a little shop on etsy. Check out my website when you have the time:</p>
