In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken pieces generously with salt and black pepper. Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pieces are golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the onion, garlic, and red bell pepper for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they become soft and fragrant.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, along with the cooked rice and frozen peas. Sprinkle the paprika, turmeric, and cayenne pepper over the mixture. Pour in the chicken broth, stirring everything together to evenly distribute the flavors.
Reduce the heat to low and allow the mixture to simmer for 5 to 7 minutes. Stir occasionally, letting the rice absorb the broth and the spices infuse every bite.
Once the rice has fully absorbed the broth, sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy the delicious harmony of flavors in this hearty one-pan meal.
