Spiced Roasted Chicken & Broccoli Rice Bake

Last meal of 2019! Spiced Roasted Chicken with Broccoli Cheddar Rice Bake, Zucchini Au Gratin and garlic herb mashed potatoes! It was a heck of a meal to wrap up the year. I am so going to use the leftover chicken to make Chicken & Green Chile Chimichangas tomorrow.
