Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a dutch oven on medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and cubed chicken. Cook for about 5 minutes until the chicken starts to brown a bit and is no longer pink. Season with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir in garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until garlic gets aromatic.
Add the rice, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, milk and sour cream. Start with 2 cups of chicken broth and add more if needed until rice is fully cooked.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and cook over medium heat until the rice is fully cooked, stirring occasionally, should take about 15-20 minutes .
Add the broccoli florets and half the cheese then continue cooking for 2 more minutes, until broccoli softens a bit. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and place the lid on the dutch oven for 3-4 minutes and let the cheese melt.
Remove from heat and let sit 2 minutes before serving.
