Ingredients:

  • ⅓ cup All-Purpose Flour

  • 4 cup Reduced-Fat Milk (divided)

  • 1 cup Sunwhite Medium Grain Rice

  • 3 cup Shredded Cooked Chicken (shredded cooked)

  • 1½ cup Cheddar Cheese (shredded)

  • ¾ tsp Salt

  • ½ tsp Black Pepper

  • ½ cup Whole Wheat Panko Breadcrumbs

  • 1 tbsp Canola Oil

Method

  • Preheat oven to 200°C.

  • Whisk together flour and 1 cup of milk in a small bowl until smooth. Bring the remaining 3 cups of milk to a boil in a skillet over medium-high, stirring often.

  • Reduce heat to medium, and gradually whisk in flour mixture until smooth. Return to a boil over medium-high. Boil, stirring constantly, until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.

  • Stir rice and broccoli into the milk mixture until combined.

  • Cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is bright green, about 2 minutes.

  • Add chicken, Cheddar, salt, and pepper to the rice mixture. Stir until the cheese is melted. Remove from heat.

  • Stir together panko and oil in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over the chicken mixture.

  • Bake in preheated oven until casserole is bubbly, about 15 minutes. Increase oven temperature to broil until top is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.

  • Remove from oven, and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Medium Grain

White medium grain rice is a round, tender and succulent grain, allowing it to lock in moisture when it is cooked. This rice is often used in dishes that require a bit more creaminess, like paella or risotto. It is also ideal in your favourite Middle Eastern, Korean and Spanish dishes.
