Steps:
- 1. Heat the oil in a 5-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until light golden in color, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- 2. Add the tomatoes, paprika, garlic and bay leaf. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the tomatoes are soft and partially dissolved, about 15 minutes.
- 3. Pour in the wine and simmer for 2 more minutes. Add the chicken and water, adding extra water if needed to just cover the chicken. Recover the pot tightly and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer the chicken for 15 minutes.
- 4. Add the rice, salt and pepper. Stir and continue to simmer for another 20 minutes.
- 5. Stir in the peas and 1 tablespoon of the parsley and simmer for 5 minutes more or until the meat is nearly falling off the bone.
- 6. Remove the pan from the heat. Let the stew stand for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with remaining parsley. The rice should be tender and the liquid should be absorbed.
