  1. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  2. Warm the olive oil in a large, deep frying pan over a medium-high heat until it shimmers.
  3. Add the chicken and cook, stirring frequently, until it is browned and almost cooked through.
  4. Mix in the rice, carrots and garlic, then pour in the stock and bring to the boil.
  5. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the pan and cook for 10 minutes.
  6. Take off the lid, stir well and add the broccoli. Replace the lid and cook for a further 10 minutes, until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
  7. Take the pan off the heat, scatter the cheese over the top and leave covered for 5 minutes so it melts before serving.
