I realized half way through prep that as written, this recipe is very flawed.
-I used a 12oz bag of fresh broccoli which didn’t fully cook. Frozen may have cooked better.
-if any rice sticks out of the liquid (stuck in the broccoli or on top if the chicken) it doesn’t cook.
I tried to remedy both of these issues by trying to submerge the broccoli as much as possible and brushing the chicken off as much as I could. I also covered the dish in foil hoping there would be a steam effect. (Note- I tried pouring the mixture around the chicken as the recipe states but inevitably, rice got on top.)
There are dozens of versions of this recipe out there. You would be better off going with one of those.
