Directions:

• 1.

  Heat olive oil on medium heat in a large pot. Add chicken breasts, season with salt and pepper, and allow the chicken to brown on one side.

• 2.

  Flip chicken, then add onions and garlic as the second side browns.

• 3.

  Once the chicken has browned on both sides, add chicken broth, water, and pasta to the pot.

• 4.

  Stir all ingredients, cover the pot with a lid, and bring to a boil. When it begins to boil, uncover and stir. Bring the heat to low, stir, then cover and let simmer for 20 minutes.

• 5.

  After 20 minutes has passed, uncover and add in the broccoli. Stir continually as the broccoli steams until the rest of the liquid evaporates.

• 6.

  Add milk and cheddar cheese and stir until the cheese melts and you have a smooth cheese sauce.

• 7.

  Add salt and pepper (to taste), cayenne, and nutmeg. Stir once more, then you’re ready to serve.

• 8.

  Enjoy!
