"A recipe that I adapted to my taste. Very flexible as to the veggies and spice. For those who don't like cilantro, basil would probably work well."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Heat the oil in a large skillet, and brown the chicken thighs all over. Remove from the pan and drain fat if desired to leave only 1 tablespoon.
Step 2
Saute the onion for about 4 minutes and then stir in the peppers, cilantro, garlic, corriander, and jalapenos and cook briefly. Preheat the oven to 375.
Step 3
Add the chickpeas and basmati rice, then the juice of the lemon and the chicken stock, and heat until just boiling. Pour the mixture into a large casserole dish and place the chicken pieces with any juices on top. Cover the casserole and bake 50 minutes or until the rice is cooked.
