How To Make broccoli chicken mac and cheese

Step 1

Brown the chicken in oil in a large skillet with a lid. Cook the chicken until it's no longer pink. Add the chicken broth and water and bring to a boil.

Step 2

Add some seasoned salt, salt and pepper. Add the uncooked macaroni, broccoli and bell pepper. Turn the heat to medium and cover to simmer for 10 minutes.
Step 3

Uncover and stir well. The macaroni should be just about done now.
Step 4

Add the cheese and stir well. Turn the heat to low and allow to cook just until the cheese melts.
Step 5

Stir a couple of times once the cheese is added because it can stick. When the cheese has melted dinner is done.
