Creating amazing Caribbean Chicken and Rice is simple when following these easy steps:

1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken thighs with thyme, allspice, paprika, ginger, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the best flavor.

2. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet or pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken thighs, cooking for about 5-7 minutes per side until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until they soften. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

4. Add Tomatoes and Rice: Stir in the diced tomatoes and rice, mixing well to combine the ingredients and allow the rice to absorb flavors for about 2-3 minutes.

5. Return Chicken: Place the seared chicken back into the skillet. Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring that the rice is submerged. Bring to a boil.

6. Simmer: Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for about 25-30 minutes until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.

7. Rest: Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5-10 minutes. This allows the rice to fluff up nicely.

8. Fluff and Serve: Use a fork to fluff the rice before serving.

9. Garnish: Top with sliced green onions for a fresh touch.
