  • Coat with 1 tablespoon olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
  • In a large saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions, season with salt, and sauté for 5 minutes until softened.
  • Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes before adding the chopped tomatoes. Stir and cook for 15-20 minutes, until reduced.

  • Cook the rice during this time.

Notes

Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken thighs reach 165°F (74°C) internally to avoid dryness. Generously apply oil for crispy skin.
