Saffron makes this simple one-pan classic a real treat, lending brilliant color and pungent flavor. This is one of the few recipes that takes a little bit longer to cook than most of the others in this book; it's a great dish to serve for company.

Makes 4 (1 1/2 cup) servings
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes

• 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

• 1 medium onion, chopped

• 1/2 cup whole-grain, quick-cooking brown rice (page 10)

• 3/4 cup roasted red bell peppers (from a jar), drained and thinly sliced

• 2 cups lower-sodium chicken broth

• 1/4 teaspoon powdered saffron

• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

• Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1. Season chicken with salt and pepper.




2. Heat oil in a large, straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and onion; cook, stirring often, until onion is softened, about 5 minutes.




3. Stir in rice. Add red peppers, broth, and saffron; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes. If paella has excess moisture, cook uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes.




4. Stir in parsley, season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve.
