Cheesy Chicken & Broccoli Stuffed Shells – Comfort Food with a Twist 🧀🥦🍗
by admin
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Cook pasta shells according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
-
In a medium bowl, mix chicken, chopped broccoli, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
-
Carefully stuff each shell with about 2 tablespoons of the filling mixture and place them in a lightly greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and milk until smooth. Pour this sauce evenly over the stuffed shells.
-
Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of cheese over the top.
-
Bake for 25 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Broil for the last 2 minutes for a golden cheesy top, if desired.
-
Let sit for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- Rotisserie chicken makes this even quicker.
- Swap in spinach or kale if you’re out of broccoli.
- You can prep and refrigerate up to 24 hours in advance before baking.
- Freezer-friendly! Assemble, wrap tightly, and freeze unbaked. Thaw and bake when ready.
- For extra creaminess, stir in 1/4 cup sour cream or softened cream cheese to the filling
