Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp oil
4 chicken thighs
4 chicken legs
salt and black pepper
1 onion, finely chopped
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped (optional)
1 -2 tbsp minced fresh garlic
1 -2 tsp dried red pepper flakes
1 cup crushed canned tomato
1/2 cup bottled pimiento, drained
1 (15 oz) can black beans (rinsed and drained
1 cup uncooked converted white rice
1 3/4 cups chicken broth or 1 3/4 cups water
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Directions:

In a large skillet heat oil over medium heat.
Season the chicken with salt and black pepper; add to the pan and brown well on both sides; remove to a plate (you can drain some fat but leave some in the pan).
Add in onion, red bell pepper (if using) and chili flakes; saute stirring with a wooden spoon for 5 minutes.
Add in garlic and cook for another minute.
Add in crushed tomatoes and pimientos, stir scraping bottom with a wooden spoon to dislodge and brown bits in the bottom of the pan.
Add in black beans, rice, broth, chopped parsley and about 1 teaspoon salt (I use Creole seasoning in place of salt) mix to combine, then place the browned chicken (skin-side down) on top in an even layer.
Bring to a boil and simmer until all the liquid is absorbed in the rice (about 12 minutes).
Using tongs turn the chicken skin-side up.
Reduce the heat to low; cover and cook until the chicken and rice are done (about 15 minutes longer).
