Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 small yellow onion chopped
- 2 medium carrots diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup long grain rice
- salt and pepper
- 1 3/4 cups chicken broth
- fresh parsley for serving
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the oregano, paprika, cumin, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the chicken thighs, making sure to coat both sides.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat in a large shallow casserole dish or a skillet.
- Add the chicken in a single layer to the hot oil. Cook until browned, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- Add the onion and carrot to the oil and cook until soft. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
- Add the rice and cook, stirring for another 2-3 minutes, then pour in the chicken broth. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Place the chicken thighs in the rice, trying to keep the chicken in a single layer. Place the lid on the pan and cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and leave covered for 10 minutes.
- Serve topped with fresh parsley and more salt, if needed.
