1. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and barbecue sauce until well combined. Set this flavorful sauce aside for later.

2. Sear the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken to the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.

3. Cook the Aromatics: In the same pan, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the aromatic vegetables to soften and release their flavors.

4. Add the Rice: Stir in the uncooked rice and let it cook for 1 minute, ensuring the grains are coated in the oil and aromatics.

5. Combine and Simmer: Pour in the chicken broth and stir well to combine everything. Return the seared chicken to the pan, placing it on top of the rice. Then, pour the honey BBQ sauce evenly over the chicken and rice.

6. Cook Until Done: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan and let it simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through.

7. Rest and Serve: Once the cooking time is up, remove the pan from heat and let it rest, still covered, for 5 minutes. Before serving, garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
