One-Pot Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Rice

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts, cubed
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 white onion, diced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
• 2 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup long grain white rice (not quick cooking)
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped, for serving

PREPARATION

1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and cook until beginning to soften, 2-3 minutes.
2. Add the chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
3. Add chicken broth and rice and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to medium-low.
4. Simmer until rice is tender, 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cream and parmesan. Serve with additional parmesan and chopped parsley, if desired. Enjoy!
