Cheesy Chicken & Rice

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 TBSP olive oil
2 cans of Campbells broccoli cheddar soup
1 1/2 cups milk
1 bag of frozen broccoli
instant rice
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

Heat your olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Cube your chicken breasts and add to the hot oil, seasoning with the salt and pepper liberally. Cook the chicken until no longer pink in the middle, about 7-10 minutes. Drain off any excess oil from the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Add the soup and milk to the skillet of cooked chicken, stir to combine. Bring your soup mixture up to a simmer. Prepare your instant rice according to package directions, cover and set aside. Punch a few fork holes into your bag of frozen broccoli and heat on high setting in your microwave for 4 minutes. Once the broccoli is done, add to your skillet of chicken and combine to cover with the sauce. Serve over the prepared rice.
