Steps:
- First, preheat the oven to 375ºF. Then, prep chicken thighs by patting them dry with a piece of paper towel. Generously sprinkle them with chicken seasoning and set aside.
- Heat 1.5 tablespoons olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium/high heat. When olive oil is fragrant. Sear chicken thighs on both sides for 2 minutes to get them golden brown. Remove from heat.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and use a wooden utensil to remove the brown bits from the bottom. Then, add onion, garlic, mushrooms, carrots and a pinch of salt and saute for 2-3 minutes.
- Add in white rice, chicken broth, frozen peas, Worchestershire sauce, and spices, and mix to combine. Turn the heat to high. Once the liquid begins to bubble, immediately remove it from the heat.
- Place the seared chicken thighs on top of the rice and place the top on the Dutch oven.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken thighs evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Place chicken skin-side down in the Dutch oven; cook undisturbed until golden crisp and easily released from the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip chicken and cook for 3 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Chicken will not be cooked through at this point.
- Add butter to the drippings and melt. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add rice; cook, stirring to coat grains in drippings and lightly toast, about 1 minute. Stir in 3 cups stock and remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the Dutch oven. Place the chicken thighs over the rice.
- Bake in the preheated oven until all liquid has been absorbed and chicken is cooked through, 45 to 55 minutes. Add remaining stock if liquid is absorbed before rice and chicken are cooked through. Sprinkle with parsley and squeeze lemon juice over the top.

DUTCH OVEN CHICKEN AND RICE RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Braise the chicken in the dutch oven with some olive oil, about 2 minutes on each side, over high heat. It should be slightly brown. While the chicken cooks, cup up the onion in thin strips and slice the garlic (I think this gives it more flavor). Chop up the parsley and basil, or whatever you have on hand. When the chicken is ready, set it aside and cook the onion and garlic in the oil leftover from the chicken. Scrape the sides a bit so you get all that flavor into it and cook for about 2 minutes until the onions look translucent. Add the tomatoes into the mix and break them up. Add the water, rice, and herbs. Add the chicken back in. Salt and pepper to taste. Bring everything up to a boil, then stick it in the oven for about 45 minutes. Let the dutch oven sit, covered, for about a half hour before serving (I love the way this softens the rice).

Tips:
- Choosing the Right Dutch Oven: Select a Dutch oven that is large enough to accommodate your chicken and rice. A 5-quart Dutch oven is a good option for a family-sized meal.
- Preparing the Chicken: Pat the chicken dry before seasoning it. This will help the seasoning adhere to the chicken and prevent it from becoming soggy.
- Seasoning the Chicken: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to season the chicken. You can also add other herbs and spices to your liking.
- Browning the Chicken: Brown the chicken in the Dutch oven over medium heat. This will help seal in the juices and add flavor to the dish.
- Adding the Rice: Rinse the rice thoroughly before adding it to the Dutch oven. This will remove any excess starch and help the rice cook evenly.
- Adding the Broth: Use a flavorful broth, such as chicken broth or vegetable broth, to cook the rice. You can also add water, but the broth will add more flavor to the dish.
- Covering the Dutch Oven: Cover the Dutch oven tightly with a lid. This will help trap the steam and ensure that the rice cooks evenly.
- Adjusting the Heat: After bringing the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for the recommended time. This will help the rice cook through without burning.
- Letting the Dish Rest: Once the rice is cooked, remove the Dutch oven from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the rice to absorb any remaining liquid and fluff up.
Conclusion:
This baked chicken and rice in the Dutch oven is an easy and delicious one-pot meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the rice is fluffy and tender. With just a few simple ingredients and steps, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal on the table in no time.
