Pat chicken breasts dry and season generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder on both sides.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Sear chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

Add white rice to the same skillet and toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the broth to a boil.

Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the rice. Reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until rice is cooked through and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes before serving. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve the chicken and rice together.
