Ingredients:  
3 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 medium yellow onion, diced finely
1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite size pieces
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tsp. kosher salt and ground pepper to taste

Directions:
Directions:
In a large skillet or pan, saute onions in two tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper.

Once onions soften, increase the heat to medium high and add chick to the pan.

Brown the chicken pieces and add the garlic. Cook for about 1 more minute.


Push chicken to one side of the pan and add additional tablespoon of olive oil to other side.

Add the uncooked rice in the olive oil and saute it for a couple of minutes.

Add the chicken broth to the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pan with a lid.

Cook chicken and rice mixture covered for about 12 minutes.

Sprinkle the broccoli evenly over the chicken and rice mixture and stir to combine.

Continue to cook covered another 8 minutes on low or until broccoli and rice are both tender.

Remove from heat and stir in half a cup of cheese.

Sprinkle remaining cheese on top and cover with a lid letting it sit for 1-2 minutes or until cheese has melted.

Personal Notes:
You need a large skillet or pan with a higher edge for this dish to hold everything. I used a 12-inch skillet that had a slightly raised edge and it worked great.
