A simple one-pan chicken bake made with tender chicken breast, creamy cottage cheese, Parmesan, and broccoli. It comes together in 35 minutes and is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs chicken breast, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 cups broccoli, chopped (frozen works fine)
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Olive oil, for tossing

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the chicken cubes with a splash of olive oil, onion powder, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
  3. Add the cottage cheese and Parmesan to the bowl and stir until every piece of chicken is well coated.
  4. Fold in the chopped broccoli florets.
  5. Spread the mixture in a single layer in a large baking dish.
  6. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cheese forms a golden crust on top.

Notes

  • Spread the chicken in a single layer so it roasts properly instead of steaming in its own juices.
  • Use a larger baking dish if needed to avoid crowding the pan.
  • Frozen broccoli works just as well as fresh in this recipe.
  • Check that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F before serving.
