Pat chicken thighs dry and season with salt, pepper, paprika, and cumin
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat
Sear chicken thighs skin-side down until browned, about 4–5 minutes per side, then remove and set aside
In the same skillet, sauté onion, bell pepper, and garlic for 2–3 minutes
Stir in rice, turmeric, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper, then toast for 1–2 minutes
Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer, stirring once to combine
Nestle the browned chicken thighs on top of the rice
Cover the skillet and cook over medium-low heat for 25–30 minutes until rice is tender and chicken is fully cooked
Remove lid and let rest 5 minutes before serving
Garnish generously with fresh cilantro or parsley
