2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 clove fresh garlic, minced
1/2 lb diced ham
2 cups cooked shredded chicken breast
4 Tablespoons butter
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
14 oz can chicken broth
3 cups cooked rice of choice (I used white long grain)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella or swiss cheese
Preheat oven to 350. Heat oil into a large 5 qt rimmed skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and bell pepper until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, ham and chicken. Cook for an additional 5 minutes. Melt butter then stir in flour, salt and pepper until combined. Slowly stir in chicken broth until well combined. Stir in cooked rice then transfer to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Top with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Cover the dish with foil the last 10 minutes for oozing cheese. 6-8 servings
****I really liked this recipe. Of course I left out the onions and bell pepper. And cubed my own ham. This can be used with leftover chicken or like I did, just take a chicken breast, boil it and then shred. Easy, makes alot and can be used as a one dish meal.
****I got this recipe from Picky Palate
