Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the chicken dry and season all over with the paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil in a deep 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and brown the chicken skin side down until golden, about 6 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Heat the oven to 375°F. Cook the onion in the drippings for 4 minutes, add the garlic and rice, and stir 1 minute to coat.

  4. 4

    Pour in the stock, season with salt, and nestle the chicken on top, skin side up.

  5. 5

    Bake uncovered until the rice is tender and the chicken reaches 175°F, about 30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Scatter the peas over the rice, rest 5 minutes so they warm through, and serve with lemon wedges.
