INSTRUCTIONS

1 Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Place chicken in medium bowl. Drizzle with 1/4 cup of the oil. Sprinkle evenly with Lawry’s Garlic Salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and cayenne. Make sure the chicken is fully coated and be sure to get the spices underneath the chicken skin. Refrigerate at least 2 hours to overnight.
2 Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side down, and sear for about 5 minutes on each side. Once the chicken is browned, remove from the skillet and set aside.
3 Reduce heat to medium-low. Drain oil from skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon in skillet. Add butter; once the butter is melted, stir in onion, red bell peppers and salt. Sauté onions and peppers for about 2 minutes, then add minced garlic and sauté 1 minute longer. Stir in tomato paste and rice, mixing well. Toast rice about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in crushed tomatoes and basil and mix well.
4 Increase heat to medium; stir in chicken broth. Bring to a simmer. Return chicken thighs to skillet, skin-side up. Cover skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook about 12 to 15 minutes without stirring. (Chicken should reach an internal temp. of 165°F). Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Fluff rice to serve.
