Chicken with Rice and Peppers

Clean the chicken, separate the thighs, wings, and breast and set them aside

Cut the carcass into pieces and use it to prepare a broth along with the bunch of herbs and the bird's offal

Soak the pieces of chicken with lemon juice, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and paprika, and let them rest for about half an hour to absorb the flavor

Meanwhile, cut the peppers in half, remove the seeds and white membranes inside, wash and dry them, and finally cut the flesh into strips

Cut the tomatoes and cooked ham into cubes

Sauté the bacon over medium heat in a baking dish with half of the olive oil, then add the onion, garlic, peppers, and ham and briefly sauté, finally lower the heat to minimum and let everything cook for 8-10 minutes

Brown the chicken pieces evenly in a pan with the remaining oil, then place them in the baking dish and cover them with the rice
