A cozy one-pot meal with crispy seared chicken thighs and flavorful rice cooked together. Perfect for weeknight dinners with plenty of leftovers.

method

1
Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large, deep skillet with a lid over medium heat.
2
Season chicken thighs with the seasonings listed above and toss to coat evenly.
3
Sear the chicken thighs for 3-4 min each side (do not worry about the chicken being cooked through at this point as they will continue cooking with the rice). I did this in 2 batches. Set aside.
4
To the same pan, add 1 tablespoon butter, onion, and garlic and cooking, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Add in rice and stir to combine.
5
Add in chicken broth and lemon juice then bring to a boil. Add in the chicken thighs on top of the rice then lower the heat to medium-low. Cover and let simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the rice has cooked through and most of the liquid has absorbed.
6
Season to taste, garnish with parsley and a squeeze of lemon to serve.
