Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear; drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces, season with half the salt and pepper, and brown on all sides for about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil to the pan. Sauté the onion and bell peppers for 4-5 minutes until softened.

  4. 4

    Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

  5. 5

    Add the rice and herbes de Provence, stirring to coat with the oil and aromatics.

  6. 6

    Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes until slightly reduced.

  7. 7

    Add the cherry tomatoes, chicken broth, remaining salt and pepper, and browned chicken back to the pan. Stir well.

  8. 8

    Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed.

  9. 9

    Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork, then sprinkle with fresh parsley.
