Directions

Prep 15 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Pat the chicken dry, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with 1/4 teaspoon each of the salt, pepper, and paprika.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden and nearly cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  3. 3

    Add the bell pepper, onion, and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and cook, stirring, until the grains look slightly translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the broth, wine, and tomatoes with their juices; stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt, pepper, and paprika. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the rice is tender and most liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.

  4. 4

    Return the chicken and any juices to the skillet, gently stir, and cook uncovered until the chicken is heated through and the mixture is saucy, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the parsley before serving.
