Baked chicken thighs with rice, carrots, and corn serve six, with the meat and side dish cooking together in one baking dish. Season the thighs with your favorite blend, such as mustard, marjoram, oregano, or garlic, and let them marinate. Sauté the onions and carrots with the corn, add the rinsed rice, then transfer the mixture to a baking dish and pour in the broth. Arrange the thighs on top and bake at 200°C (400°F) until the rice absorbs the liquid. The hands-on preparation takes about 20 minutes.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Pat the chicken thighs dry, season with your favorite seasoning blend, and let marinate. Options include mustard, turmeric, marjoram, oregano, basil, ginger, coriander, dried onion and garlic, or nutmeg.
Peel and finely chop the onions and carrots. Sauté them in a skillet with a little oil, add the corn, and stir over low heat.
Rinse the rice, add it to the vegetables in the skillet, and sauté briefly. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and pour the broth or water evenly over it.
Arrange the marinated thighs on top, cover the dish with aluminum foil, and bake at 200°C (400°F) for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 15–20 minutes.

Tip: You can leave the seasoned thighs in the refrigerator overnight. Pour hot broth into the baking dish so the rice starts cooking sooner in the oven and cooks more evenly.
