Cheesy Chicken & Broccoli Rice

I made this rice dish for dinner tonight. Everyone LOVED it! When making this dish please keep in mind that I cook for a family of 9 people. So, if you're cooking for a family of 5 you're probably going to want to cut this recipe in half...unless you want LOTS of leftovers!

What you'll need:

*2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts
*3 c. white rice, cooked
*1 lb. (16 oz.) Velveeta cheese, cubed
*1 pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped broccoli, thawed

What you do:

1. Add 3 cups white rice to 6 cups of boiling water. Cover and simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes, or until rice is tender.

2. Cut chicken breasts into cubes and cook in a large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat until the chicken is no longer pink.

3. Add the chicken, Velveeta and broccoli to the rice; cover. Remove from heat. Let stand for 10 min. Stir until Velveeta is completely melted and mixture is well blended.

4. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
