Description

A creamy, cheesy one-skillet meal packed with chicken, broccoli, and cauliflower rice. Low-carb, comforting, and easy to make in just 30 minutes. Perfect for weeknight dinners or healthy meal prep.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken breast, cubed

  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 3 cups cauliflower rice

  • 3 cups broccoli florets

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • ½ cup cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Olive oil, for cooking

  • Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent. Stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds more.

  • Add cubed chicken, paprika, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook uncovered for 5–10 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned.

  • Add cauliflower rice, broccoli florets, and chicken broth. Stir well, cover, and cook for 5–10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  • Reduce heat to low. Stir in cream cheese until fully melted and well combined with the other ingredients.

  • Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the top. Broil for 2–3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbly.

 

  • Remove from heat, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve hot.

Notes

  • Frozen vegetables should be thawed and drained before using.

  • For a vegetarian version, substitute chickpeas or tofu for the chicken.

  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

 

  • Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of broth to maintain creaminess.
