Tất cả các bước
- 1
Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season generously with salt, pepper, dried thyme, and paprika.
- 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear chicken thighs for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
- 3
Reduce heat to medium. Add chopped onion to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 4
Stir in the long-grain white rice, coating it with the pan drippings. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
- 5
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add the juice from half a lemon.
- 6
Return the seared chicken thighs to the pan, nestling them into the rice. Bring the liquid back to a gentle simmer.
- 7
Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid, and the chicken is cooked through.
- 8
Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork.

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
