In a casserole dish, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and sauté for 6-7 minutes until softened.
3
Add sausage slices to the pan and sauté until lightly browned. Stir in garlic and tomato paste, let it cook for an additional minute.
4
Remove the pan from the heat. Add the canned tomatoes, corn, peas, cooked chicken, rice, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt. Pour the chicken broth on top and mix until the ingredients are well combined.
5
Drizzle the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil over the dish. Cover it with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes.
6
Check the dish. The rice should be fully cooked, and there should not be much liquid left. If it feels too dry, you can add more chicken broth. If it is too watery, remove foil and allow it to cook for a few more minutes.
7
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh chopped herbs like chives or parsley, if desired.
