1
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2
In a large, oven-safe pot, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat.
3
Add the chopped onion and carrots, and cook until fragrant, about 5 minutes.
4
Stir in the cubed chicken, and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until the chicken is seared, about 2-3 minutes.
5
Add the salted butter, jasmine rice, and fresh thyme leaves. Cook until the rice is golden and toasted, about 2-3 minutes.
6
Pour in the low sodium chicken broth, and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
7
Add the chopped broccoli florets, bay leaves, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.
8
Bring the mixture to a boil, cover the pot, and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, until the rice is mostly cooked.
9
Remove the bay leaves, and stir in the lemon zest, heavy cream, and 1/2 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
10
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
11
Transfer the pot to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and just beginning to brown.
12
Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh thyme leaves.
