This cheesy chicken broccoli bake is the perfect one pan meal! It’s an ideal weeknight dinner thats super easy to make and ultra comforting. The secret ingredient in this dish is mayo! I use the mayo to keep the chicken extra tender and it tastes so good when the cheese melts right over the top. Plus we can’t forget our veggie, broccoli!

I like to place the pan right on the table (over an oven mitt, of course) at dinner time and serve with a side of rice! It makes for an easy clean up and a true family style meal.
