Instructions

  1. 1

    Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic and chop the half onion.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned on all sides.

  3. 3

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.

  4. 4

    Stir in the uncooked white rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add the broccoli florets to the pot. Stir, cover, and continue to simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the broccoli is bright green and crisp-tender.

  6. 6

    Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and creamy. Adjust seasoning if needed.
