Ingredients
  

For the One Pot Broccoli Chicken Mac and Cheese
  • 2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Method
 

  1. Step 1: In a large pot, combine the uncooked elbow macaroni, broccoli florets, shredded chicken, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together to ensure that the pasta is submerged in the broth.

  3. Step 3: Allow the pasta to cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender but not mushy.
  4. Step 4: Once the pasta is cooked, remove the pot from heat. Stir in the milk and shredded cheddar cheese until everything is fully melted and creamy.
  5. Step 5: Your One Pot Broccoli Chicken Mac and Cheese is now ready to serve! Dish it out into bowls and enjoy while it’s hot.
