Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups cooked ham, diced
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 cups cooked white rice
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cups whole milk
- 0.5 cups yellow onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 0.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Blanch the broccoli florets for 2-3 minutes, just until tender but still vibrant green. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, diced ham, blanched broccoli, 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, finely chopped onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until evenly mixed.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, panko breadcrumbs, and grated Parmesan cheese. Evenly spread this breadcrumb mixture over the top of the cheese layer.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Cheesy Ham Broccoli Casserole!
