In a large oven-safe skillet, combine the chicken pieces, broccoli, rice, chicken broth, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
If using, drizzle olive oil over the mix and stir to combine.
Bring to a simmer, then sprinkle the cheese on top.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender.
Serve
Dish it out straight from the pan and enjoy the gooey, cheesy goodness.
