Ingredients

1tbsp Sunflower Oil
4 Chicken Thighs
1 White Onion, chopped
1 Red Capsicum, chopped
1 Garlic Clove, chopped
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Dried Oregano
1 tbsp Tomato Puree
1 Chicken Stock Cube
100 g Frozen Peas
1 pouch UNCLE BEN'S® Golden Vegetable Rice
Small handful of Parsley, chopped

Instructions

Mix the dried herbs together with salt and pepper and set aside. Place the chicken thighs in a bowl with the sunflower oil and half of the spice mixture. Mix until well covered.
Heat a lidded casserole pan over a medium to high heat. Cook the chicken thighs on each side until browned then transfer to a plate. Add the onion and capsicum to the pan, reducing the heat to low.
When the onions begin to go translucent add the garlic, remaining dried spices and tomato puree to the pan. Cook for 3 more minutes then add the stock cube with 300 ml water.
Return the chicken thighs to the pan and cover. Bring to the boil then reduce to simmer for 20 minutes until the liquid has reduced and the chicken is cooked through.
Add the peas, rice and parsley to the pan and mix through to combine. Cook for 5 more minutes to heat the peas and rice through and allow them to absorb the flavours.
