Preparation
- In a shallow dish or medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, agave, 1 teaspoon of salt, the oregano, chili powder, and 2 teaspoons of cumin. Add the chicken and toss to coat well. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 4 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and place in a large oven-safe pot over medium-high heat, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Cook for 3 minutes, or until golden brown, then flip and repeat on the other side. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
- Add the onion and bell peppers to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until starting to soften.
- Add the rice and chicken stock. Season with the remaining teaspoon of cumin, the pepper, and remaining 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil, then return the chicken thighs to the pot.
- Cover with a lid and transfer to the oven until the rice is tender, about 45 minutes.
- Garnish with a squeeze of lime juice and cilantro.
- Enjoy!

Add garlic powder in with the marinade at the beginning for an extra boost in flavour!! Also I was worried about this method of rice cooking and over cooking the chicken and veggies in the process so I parboiled the rice and then added it in and just watched it till it was cooked, came out fantastic! Highly recommend

I modified this for instant pot! Use 1 1/4 to 1 cup ratio liquid to rice instead. I also added garlic! It didn’t have the seared chicken taste but it was extremely easy and cooked everything in 18 minutes instead of pre-searing/sauté/baking for 40 minutes. Still tasted fantastic. We added avocado and lots of cilantro and hot sauce on top.
