Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
- In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add ¼ cup of diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until soft. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of shredded cooked chicken, 2 cups of cooled cooked rice, and 2 cups of steamed broccoli florets. Fold in the sautéed onion and garlic.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt, ½ cup of low-sodium chicken broth, 1 teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon of black pepper, and ½ teaspoon of smoked paprika until smooth.
- Pour the creamy sauce over the chicken mixture and stir gently to coat well.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and top with ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese and ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese.
- Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes until edges are bubbling and cheese is golden brown. Optionally, broil for 2 minutes for extra crispiness.

Notes
For meal prepping, prepare the casserole (without the cheese topping) up to 24 hours in advance. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
