Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, paprika, cumin, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken thighs and coat well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Stew

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large oven-safe pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent.

  3. 3

    Add Peppers and Chicken

    Add red and green bell peppers to the pot, stirring for about 5 minutes. Place the marinated chicken thighs on top of the peppers, then pour in the diced tomatoes and chicken broth.

  4. 4

    Bake the Stew

    Cover the pot and transfer it to the oven. Bake for 45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

  5. 5

    Make the Turmeric Rice

    While the stew is baking, rinse the basmati rice under cold water. In a saucepan, combine water, turmeric powder, and salt. Bring to a boil, add rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Fluff the turmeric rice with a fork. Serve the pepper chicken stew over the rice, garnished with fresh parsley.
