Last night I had no idea what to make for supper, just like so many others out there. I did know I wanted chicken and broccoli, but that was really no surprise, as I always want them. A pasta skillet was just the think I wanted, and would make everyone want to eat their supper.

Pinterest is my go to for recipe ideas. There are so many different options on there for chicken and broccoli from using the slow cooker, to casseroles, to skillets., and now, the Instant Pot.
What I ended up making, was a pasta skillet. I didn’t follow any particular recipe, just looked at a bunch and picked things I liked from them. Which is my usual way of making supper. This is what I made, and just LOVED!
This was a simple throw together meal, perfect for last minute meals.
What you need:
- 2 medium boneless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp EVOO
- 12oz frozen or fresh broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
- 1 (16oz) box of pasta
- 1 can of cream of chicken condensed soup or one mix of my homemade cream of soup
- ½ cup shredded cheese, mozzerella

Cook pasta according to the package directions.
While pasta is cooking, brown chicken in hot skillet with EVOO. Once cooked through remove from heat and dice.
Once pasta is cooked remove from water and add to skillet with diced chicken. In the hot water from your pasta, throw in your broccoli, just to make it just tender.
Grate your mozzarella cheese while you want for things to cook.
Once your broccoli is tender, add it to the skillet, along with the cream of soup. Mix well.
Top with shredded cheese and then broil on HIGH for 5 – 10 minutes until the cheese melts and just starts to brown.
