Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook rice according to package instructions and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Add to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour, cooking for 1 minute until a paste forms. Slowly whisk in chicken broth and milk, bringing it to a simmer. Cook until thickened, then remove from heat.
Add cooked rice, chicken pieces, and half of the cheddar cheese to the skillet. Stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
Transfer mixture to a greased baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese on top.
Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
