Baked Broccoli Bacon Cheddar Chicken Breasts – easy dinner that a whole family will love! Just throw all ingredients together and bake!
I recommend to blanch the broccoli before adding it on top of chicken (blanching means adding broccoli to boiling water just for a couple of minutes, removing it and draining it well). Blanching the broccoli makes it moist and brighter in color.
The recipe is so easy – great for when you don’t have too much time on your hands to think about what to cook for dinner.
