Rinse the brown rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat and sauté the onion, garlic, and bell pepper until softened.
Add the chicken thighs to the pot and season with smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Pour in the chicken broth and add the rinsed brown rice. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Simmer for about 40-45 minutes.
Check the rice for doneness, fluffing it with a fork once cooked.
Let the dish sit covered for an additional 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley.
