Preparation
- Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
- In a large bowl, evenly season chicken thighs with salt, pepper, paprika, and parsley.
- On high, heat olive oil in a oven-proof pot and place chicken thighs, skin-side down, in the hot oil. Cook 5-6 minutes or the thighs develop brown crispy skin and flip over.
- Cook an additional 5-6 minutes to brown the other side and remove from the pot.
- Add the garlic and onions to the pot, and cook until the onions are transparent.
- Pour in the rice and chicken broth to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Stir well, bringing to a boil.
- Add the chicken thighs back into the pot, skin-side up, on top of the rice, bring back to a boil and cover with a lid.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked.
- NOTE: For a crispy skin, remove chicken thighs and broil.
- Enjoy!

Doubled the garlic and added cayenne pepper powder, and onion powder, then broiled for crispy skin, SO GOOD

Made this so many times already, just like others comments I doubled garlic and onions and I personally added a pinch of cumin in the broth to mix with rice so it has more flavor since hubby was saying it needed something more and it turned out great. I don’t have long grain rice so I use regular white rice and I put more rice than the recipe

I think I will increase the broth just a little. Some rice was not cooked and all liquid cooked down.
