Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken with the salt, Italian seasoning, and black pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side, then transfer to a plate.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Melt the butter, add the garlic, and cook for 30 seconds.
  4. Stir in the rice and cook for 1 minute.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and milk and stir well.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet. Bring to a gentle boil, cover, and reduce the heat to low.
  7. Simmer for 18-20 minutes, until the rice is tender and the chicken reaches 74 C / 165 F.
  8. Remove from the heat, stir the Parmesan into the rice, and rest covered for 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley if desired.
