Ingredients

3 tablespoons butter, plus extra for casserole dish
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 pound shiitake or baby bella mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 (10-ounce) box frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
2 cups shredded Cheddar-Monterey blend
3 cups cooked rice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Special equipment: 1 1/8-quart oval casserole dish

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Butter casserole dish. In a large pot, melt 3 tablespoons butter and flour over medium heat until golden in color to make a quick roux. The roux should resemble the color of peanut butter. Add mushrooms, onion, garlic, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, heavy cream and chicken stock. Add broccoli, 1 cup of the cheese and rice. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour into buttered dish and top with remaining shredded Cheddar. Bake until cheese is melted and golden, about 20 minutes.

This was amazing!!! I had a recipe i had created for broccoli casserole but this blew mine out the water. I only strayed from... the recipe a bit . . instead of using heavy cream i used cream of mushroom and cream of chicken and i added a pound of chicken breast strips cut into cubes but it was unbelievable. I literally could not stop eating it ~ plus my family enjoyed it. Defintely a family fave.Read more

Yummy flavor!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I loved the sauce for this! my daughter wanted seconds and thirds. I cooked chicken thighs cut in small pieces w EVOO n... saltnpepper in a skillet and then added that to the mix. I had a complete meal rather than just a side. The only complaint was from my husband.. he could taste the onions and mushrooms.... next time i have to chop them VERY small to get him to eat it lolRead more
