Cheddar-Broccoli Chicken

"From the recipe book A Man, A Can, A Plan. I served this over rice to rave reviews from my family, including the picky children. I couldn't find a 9-oz can of chedder cheese dip (the pic showed Fritos brand), so I used half a 16 oz jar of medium spiced Tostito brand cheese dip. I typed the recipe instructions as he had them in the cookbook, but I cooked my chicken for a bit longer than 5 minutes, and I added a bit of water to the pan with the vegetables so they didn't burn."

  1. I made this for dinner last night. VERY tasty! My suggestions for future cooks: Cut the broccoli small if you are following the posted times OR adjust your times to make sure that the broccoli is cooked to your liking. I also used a Salsa Queso dip. I added some milk during the last few minutes of cooking to create a more "saucy" consistency. We had it over egg noodles and it was a great, quick meal.
     
  2. We really liked this recipe a lot. It's very easy to do and the flavor was great. I substituted the cheddar cheese dip for 2% velvetta because I had it in the house. I will be making this again
     
  3. I made this for family and it went over ok! Not sure what to change but I felt it needed something.
