Ingredients
- ¾ cup chopped onion
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- ⅓ cup vegan buttery spread
- 2 Tablespoons gluten free flour blend
- 2 ½ cups chicken broth
- 14 ounces full fat coconut milk
- ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 ½ teaspoons curry powder

- 1.25 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast cut into one inch pieces
- 3 cups cooked Basmati rice You can use any rice you like.
- 2 cups broccoli florets finely chopped
- 1 ½ cups gluten free garlic breadcrumbs or crushed crackers
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Stir in the gluten free flour blend, and allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes to get rid of the flour taste.
- Add the chicken broth, full fat coconut milk, and spices, and stir. Add the pieces of chicken breasts. You can use kitchen scissors and cut the chicken breasts right into the skillet (that way you don't make extra dishes to wash).
- Stir in the finely chopped broccoli and the cooked rice.
- Carefully pour the mixture into a 9x13 casserole dish. Make sure everything is covered in liquid, then place the dish in the oven. Bake at 375 degrees F for 45 minutes.
- While the casserole is baking, you can make your garlic breadcrumbs if you are doing that from scratch.
- After 45 minutes sprinkle the breadcrumbs or crushed crackers on top of the casserole. Bake for another 10 minutes.
- Enjoy!
Notes
This recipe requires cooked rice, so you need to cook the rice before you start this casserole.
Store leftover casserole in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It should stay fresh for about 4 days.
If you don't want to use breadcrumbs, you can use crushed potato chips or cracker crumbs.
If you want to freeze this, bake the casserole in a container that is safe for the oven and freezer. Allow it to cool completely, then cover with foil and place in the freezer. When you want to reheat it, thaw the casserole overnight in the refrigerator, then reheat in a 350 degree oven.
