4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion peeled and diced
6 oz cremini mushrooms sliced
½ cup roasted red bell peppers diced
4 cloves garlic peeled and minced
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
¼ tsp crushed red pepper plus more
1 cup arborio, carnaroli, or any short-grain white rice
¼ c white wine
3 c water or chicken stock
½ cup freshly grated Parm
Salt and pepper

Pat chicken dry and season all over with salt and pepper.

Heat 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil in a large pot over medium-high. Once shimmering, add the chicken—skin-side down—and cook without moving for 5-6 mins. Once the chicken skin is golden-brown, flip and cook 2 mins more. Transfer chicken to a plate. Leave any fat in the pot and turn the heat to medium.

Add onion to the pot and cook over medium heat for 3-4 mins. Add the mushrooms and cook, occasionally stirring, for 8-9 mins until golden brown. Adjust heat as needed.

Add the roasted red peppers, garlic, thyme, and crushed red pepper. Season all over with salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute.

Add rice to the pot and toss to coat. Add salt. Cook for 1 min to toast it.

Pour in the wine and bring it to a boil. Cook for 1–2 mins.

Add water or chicken stock and bring to a boil. Place chicken on top, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20–25 mins.

Turn heat to medium and partially remove the lid (the pot should be half-covered). Rapid simmer 5 mins. Check internal temperature of the chicken and ensure it’s 165°F. Once the temperature is reached, transfer the chicken to a plate.

Turn heat on the rice to medium-low and stir regularly. Continue simmering and stirring to cook off any excess liquid if needed. Stir in the parm and simmer for 5-7 mins until rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Season to taste.

If you like, you can place chicken on top and broil for 3-5 mins to crisp up the skin again!

Sprinkle a few basil leaves on top of the pot. Serve the rice with a chicken thigh on top and enjoy!
