### How to Make It:

#### 1. **Sear the Chicken**

In a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish, season and sear your chicken until golden brown on both sides. Set aside.

#### 2. **Sauté the Aromatics**

In the same pan, sauté garlic and onion until fragrant.

#### 3. **Combine the Ingredients**

Add uncooked rice, chicken broth, cream, and seasonings. Stir well, then nestle the chicken back into the dish.

#### 4. **Bake to Perfection**

Cover with foil and bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 30–35 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through. Sprinkle cheese on top in the last 5 minutes if using.

#### 5. **Serve & Enjoy**

Let it rest a few minutes before garnishing with herbs and serving. Every spoonful is creamy, garlicky comfort in a dish.

### Why I Keep Making It (And You Will Too!)

* **All-in-one meal** — protein, carbs, and creamy sauce all in one pan
* **Customizable** — swap the chicken for shrimp, add spinach or mushrooms, or make it spicy
