Southern Broccoli And Rice Casserole Recipes

SOUTHERN BROCCOLI AND RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Boil the four cups of vegetable or chicken broth in a 3-quart pan. Once the water comes to a boil, add 2 cups of long-grain white rice and stir. Boil for about 3-4 minutes before covering with a tight-fitting lid and reducing heat to the lowest setting. Leave the burner on the lowest heat setting covered for about 10-12 minutes, then completely turn off the heat source and let rice stand for about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place a metal skillet on medium heat, add 3-4 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the skillet, let unsalted butter slowly melt, then add chopped Vidalia onion, season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, sauté the onions in butter for about 3 minutes before adding ¼ of a cup of flour; stir continuously until the raw flour taste cooks off about 2-3 minutes.
• Add 1 ¼ cups of the extra vegetable or chicken broth to the flour and onion mixture to the metal skillet, stir thoroughly, then slowly add half and half cream and sour cream to the mixture stirring until it becomes thick and creamy, slowly add the cheeses and stir the mixture until it becomes thick and creamy, if the cheese mixture becomes too thick add a touch more broth or half and half cream to it to thin out. You may season with more kosher salt and freshly ground pepper if desired.
