Steps

In a bowl, mix yogurt, salt, minced garlic, smoked paprika, and olive oil. Submerge the chicken and marinate for at least 4 hours. In a small pot, combine diced carrot, onion, garlic, bay leaf, parsley stems, black peppercorns, and a pinch of salt with water. Bring to a boil for 20 minutes to create vegetable broth. In a large pan, heat olive oil and brown the marinated chicken. Remove and set aside. In the same pan, add chopped onion and bell peppers, season with salt, and sauté for 4 minutes. Then add minced garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Spread the rice evenly over the veggies, pour in the vegetable broth until it covers the rice by about 1 inch, and add white wine. Sprinkle saffron over the mixture, return the chicken to the pan, and add peas on top. Cook, checking the rice and adding more broth if needed, until the rice is tender and has absorbed the flavors.
