Ingredients

1 cup uncooked white rice
3 cups chicken broth, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pork chop, diced
2 zucchini, diced
3 green onions, chopped
2 sprigs chopped fresh rosemary
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Combine 2 cups of chicken broth and brown rice in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat and cook pork until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini and cook for 3 minutes. Add 1 cup chicken broth and simmer until zucchini are soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice. Mix in green onions, rosemary, and Parmesan cheese and cook until well combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
