US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Start by cutting the chicken breast into ½-inch cubes. Then, toss it in a bowl with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Coat all sides evenly with the seasoning.
    2 pounds chicken breast, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • Heat the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat and pan-fry the chicken for approximately 3 minutes on each side. Once cooked through, remove from heat and set aside.
    2 tablespoons butter
  • While the chicken cooks, begin trimming the broccoli and cut it into florets (just the top part, with minimal stalk). Steam broccoli until tender for about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
    4 cups broccoli
  • While the broccoli steams, begin preparing the Alfredo sauce. If you are using store-bought sauce, jump down to the next step.
    Simmer the garlic in butter in a small saucepan for 2 minutes until fragrant. Mix in cream. Slowly add the parmesan and stir continuously until it's a thick, uniform sauce. Finally, season with nutmeg, remove from heat and set aside.
    2 cups Alfredo sauce, ¼ cup butter, 2 cloves garlic, 1 ⅓ cup heavy cream, 3 cups Parmesan, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Put the chicken bake together by spreading ½ cup of Alfredo sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Layer half the cooked chicken with half of the steamed broccoli arranged over it. Then, spoon 1 cup of Alfredo sauce over the broccoli and sprinkle 1 cup of mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce.
    2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • Repeat the process for a second layer with all the remaining chicken, broccoli, sauce, and shredded cheese. Garnish with parsley and place under the broiler in the oven for 5 minutes on high until the cheese melts, bubbles, and begins turning golden brown. Remove from the oven and let sit for a few minutes before serving warm.
    2 tablespoons parsley
