- 1 teaspoon Cumin

Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat (around 200°C / 400°F). Sear the chicken pieces in batches until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Do not overcrowd the pot. Remove the browned chicken to a plate and set aside.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Reduce the heat to medium (around 180°C / 350°F). Add the chopped onion and bell peppers to the pot. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes. Add the minced garlic and ground cumin, and cook for another minute until fragrant, stirring constantly.
⏱️ 11 minutes - 3
Stir in the rinsed rice, coating it with the vegetables and spices. Pour in the beer and scrape the bottom of the pot to loosen any browned bits. Let the beer bubble and reduce slightly for about 2 minutes. Return the seared chicken pieces to the pot, nestling them amongst the rice and vegetables. Pour in the chicken broth.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Bring the liquid to a simmer. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low (around 150°C / 300°F), cover the pot tightly, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until most of the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Avoid lifting the lid during this time. Stir in the frozen peas during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Once the rice is cooked, remove from heat and let it rest, covered, for 5-10 minutes before serving.
⏱️ 30 minutes - 5
Fluff the rice gently with a fork. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro, if desired, before serving.
