Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breasts cut into chunks
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup white rice
- 1 cup carrots diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 1/2 cups chicken stock
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup grated cheddar
Instructions
- Season the chicken with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Add the olive oil to a large, deep skillet and heat until shimmering.
- Add the chicken to the hot pan and cook, stirring often, until chicken is nearly cooked through and browned on the outside.
- Add the rice, carrots, and garlic to the pan and stir to combine. Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Reduce to a simmer, cover pan and cook for 10 minutes.
- Remove lid and stir well. Add the broccoli and cover the pan. Continue cooking for 10 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated and the rice is tender.
