Ingredients

  • 1-2 tablespoons oil
  • 8 Grow and Behold chicken thighs you can also use other chicken pieces on the bone; white meat cooks up a little drier in the crock pot but is still very tasty
  • 2 large onions thinly sliced
  • 2 red bell peppers roasted (or ½ (24-ounce) jar sweet red peppers), thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cups Grow & Behold chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • ½ teaspoon saffron
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika or pimenton
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes or more to taste
  • 2 cups short-grain brown rice
  • 1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes with juice
  • ½ cup flat-leaf parsley optional

Instructions

  •  Preheat slow cooker to low.
  •  Heat oil in a large saute pan. Pat thighs dry, then brown for about 10 minutes on each side (do it in a few batches). Transfer chicken to a plate.
  • Add onions to the saute pan and saute 12 minutes or until brown. Add peppers and cook 3 minutes or until slightly soft. Add garlic and cook 3 minutes more, until garlic is soft and fragrant. Add white wine and scrape up all the brown bits on the bottom of the pan.
  • Transfer onions to the slow cooker. Add broth, tomato paste, and spices; stir to combine. Add rice and tomatoes (with juices) and mix well. Place the chicken on top with any juices that may have accumulated on the plate.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.
  • Gently remove chicken pieces and mound on a platter with rice and vegetables. Sprinkle with parsley.
