Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-size pieces
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 bunch green onions thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 jalapeno pepper finely chopped (optional)
  • 1 cup uncooked white rice
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 3-4 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes. Add the chicken, salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and no longer pink. Remove the cooked meat from the skillet and set aside. Drain the skillet and place it back on the burner.
  • Add the olive oil, green onions, garlic and jalapeño peppers (if using). Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until veggies are soft and fragrant. Add rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to Low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • At the 7-9-minute mark, add the broccoli and re-cover. Stir after 15 minutes of simmering, add the cooked chicken and cheese and re-cover for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm!
