Looking for a chicken dish that only uses a few simple ingredients, with so much flavor and minimal effort, this one is for you. Not only is it delicious but a perfect no-fuss weeknight meal like my Chicken Broccoli Rice Casserole and Baked Chicken and Gravy.
Why this recipe works
This easy paprika chicken recipe has tender chicken on a bed of flavorful rice with lots of smoky paprika. A one-pot dinner that doesn’t skimp on flavor and that the whole family will love like my Ground Beef and Rice Skillet.
Ingredients Needed for Paprika Chicken

- Chicken: I prefer to use bone-in chicken thighs but boneless skinless chicken thighs will also work or even chicken legs.
- Rice: Jasmine or Basmati rice
- Paprika: I recommend smoked paprika, but regular paprika will work in a pinch.
- Onion: I like to use red onion for this, but a white or yellow onion will also work.
- Chicken broth: Low sodium to help reduce the salt.
