Stacy P
"This has been a family favorite for over 15 years. It's easy to make and a crowd pleaser. It can also be made the day before and baked when you are ready to enjoy it."

Ready In
- Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets, and cook uncovered until just tender, about 4 minutes. Drain in a colander, then immediately rinse with cold water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the broccoli is cold, drain well, chop into small pieces, and place into a mixing bowl.
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Stir the cooked rice, chicken, Cheddar cheese, cream of chicken soup, yogurt, almonds, curry powder, garlic powder, pepper, and lemon juice into the broccoli until evenly mixed. Spoon the mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes.
Footnotes
- Tip
- Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.

Curry flavor was too strong - both husband & daughter didn't like it.

Hi! This is my recipe. I always cook the rice in the microwave because it's faster. I add 1 c. uncooked rice and 2 c. water in a large bowl, cover with plastic wrap and microwave for around 20...

This recipe is wonderful but save yourself some time by using frozen broccoli. Just thaw and mix in with the other ingredents no need to pre cook. It comes out great!!

I made this for my office Christmas party and it was delicious. I made one change and used sour cream instead of yogurt.

I liked this very much. SInce I am low carb diet, I used the suggestion to substitute the soup with broth and the cheddar with parmasean. Very fresh flavor. I will make again.
