- Preheat your oven's broiler to high. Melts 1 tablespoon of butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 5 minutes until golden brown, flip and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove from skillet.
- Pour 1 cup of chicken broth into the skillet with browned bits. Simmer for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.
- Steam the frozen broccoli according to package instructions, about 4-5 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the cream cheese and heavy whipping cream. Whisk for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and is smooth.
- Add ½ cup of Parmesan cheese and ½ cup of pepper jack cheese, continuing to whisk until melted and incorporated.
- Return the sautéed chicken and steamed broccoli to the skillet, toss to coat in the Alfredo sauce, then top with ½ cup of shredded mozzarella.
- Broil in the oven for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and golden. Garnish with fresh basil before serving.

Notes
Ensure chicken breasts are evenly thick. Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth sauce. Watch closely while broiling to avoid burning.
