Cheddar Ranch Chicken and Rice in Creamy Garlic Sauce

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
Calories per serving: ~590 kcal

Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into thick bite-size chunks
- 1 1/2 cups long-grain white rice
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- 2 3/4 cups chicken broth
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 1/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Directions:
1. In a large skillet, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add the chicken chunks and season them with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Cook until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked.
2. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the rice and stir it for about 1 minute until it gets a light toast.
3. Pour in the chicken broth and add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring this to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and let it cook for 15-18 minutes until the rice is nice and tender.
4. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, gently heat the heavy cream and cream cheese over low heat until both are melted and smooth. Stir in the cheddar cheese until it’s beautifully melted and creamy.
5. Once your rice is cooked, return the chicken to the skillet and pour the cheesy goodness over everything. Stir until everything is deliciously combined.
6. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, just to heat everything through. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve it warm and enjoy!

Notes & Variations 📝
- Add in some frozen peas or chopped broccoli during the last few minutes of rice cooking for a pop of color and added nutrition.
- Swap out the heavy cream for a lighter version like half-and-half if preferred.
- For an extra kick, throw in a bit of cayenne pepper or red

Garlic Butter Steak Tips with Buttered Egg Noodles in Cheddar Sauce

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 4
Calories per serving: ~650 kcal

Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 lbs sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- 12 oz wide egg noodles
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste

Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook until just tender. Drain the noodles and toss them with 2 tbsp of butter to coat. Set aside.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak cubes and season with Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Sear the steak until browned and cooked to your desired doneness, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Reduce the heat to medium and push the steak to one side of the skillet. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the butter and stir everything together to combine.
4. In a separate saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
5. Fold the cooked egg noodles into the cheese sauce until they are well coated.
6. Serve the buttered egg noodles topped with the garlic butter steak tips, and garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
