Ingredients

For this recipe, you will need:
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 3 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 pound chicken livers, finely diced
  • 2 cups long-grain white rice
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Equipment

For this recipe, you will need:
  • A large skillet
  • A wooden spoon or spatula
  • A medium-sized pot with a lid

Method

  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
  2. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the same skillet. Add the onion, bell pepper, and celery and cook until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic, thyme, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  4. Add the chicken livers to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are browned.
  5. Add the rice to the skillet and stir to coat it in the vegetable mixture.
  6. Add the chicken broth to the skillet and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
  7. Stir in the cooked chicken and green onions, and cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat the chicken through.
  8. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

If you want to make this dish spicier, you can add more cayenne pepper or hot sauce. You can also adjust the seasoning to your liking by adding more salt or pepper.
