Chicken pieces of your choice simmered with rice, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper and spices. This is a delicious and filling dish that you won't be able to get enough of! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided |
1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces |
1 onion, thinly sliced |
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced |
1 cup uncooked white rice |
1 (14.5 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, with liquid |
1 3/4 cups chicken broth |
1 bay leaf |
2 teaspoons paprika |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until hot, not smoking. Add chicken pieces and saute until browned, about 5 minutes each side. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
2. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in skillet, then add onion and bell pepper and saute, stirring frequently, until onion is translucent (about 5 minutes).
3. Add rice and saute about 2 minutes, stirring, to coat the rice with the oil. Then add the reserved chicken, tomatoes with liquid, chicken broth, bay leaf, paprika and ground black pepper. Bring to a boil.
