Ingredients
- 1 lb Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3/4 lb Broccoli florets
- 1/2 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)
- Heat the oven to 400°F and lightly oil a rimmed baking dish with about 1 tsp of the olive oil.
- Pat the chicken dry and arrange it in the baking dish. Rub with the remaining oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Cut the broccoli into florets about 1 to 1 1/2 inches wide, then spread them around the chicken in the dish.
- Bake for 20 minutes, until the broccoli is bright green and beginning to soften and the chicken is nearly cooked through.
- Sprinkle the cheddar evenly over the broccoli and chicken, then bake for 5–10 minutes more, until the cheese is melted and the thickest part of each breast reads 165°F.
- Rest the chicken for 5 minutes before slicing so it stays juicy, then serve with the broccoli.
