Easy Cheesy Chicken, Broccoli, And Rice Skillet
  1. Pat 1 ½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs dry and cut into 1-inch cubes. Toss with 1 tbsp avocado oil, 1 tsp fine sea salt, ½ tsp black pepper, 1 tsp smoked paprika, and 2 tsp garlic powder.

  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Add ½ large yellow onion (diced), ½ lb chopped broccoli florets, and 1 tbsp water or chicken broth. Cover and cook for 3-4 mins, then uncover and cook another 1-2 mins to reduce the liquid.

  4. Stir in 2 cups prepared rice (I used my @kaizenfoodco lowcarb rice) and half of 1 cup shredded cheddar (or Pepper Jack). Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top, cover, and let it melt for 1-2 minutes.

  5. Top with fresh parsley, hot sauce, some sour cream or yogurt, and serve!
