Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. While the chicken is marinating, rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  4. In a saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil, then add the rinsed rice. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  5. Remove the rice from heat and stir in chopped parsley, basil, and lemon zest. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
  6. In a skillet, cook the marinated chicken over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve the chicken over a bed of herb rice, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
