Add chopped red onion, bell peppers, and zucchini to the sheet pan, arranging them evenly.

5

Place the chicken thighs on top of the vegetables.

6

Generously season the chicken and vegetables with the Greek seasoning blend.

7

Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C) and place the sheet pan in the oven without waiting for it to heat up.

8

Cook for about 45 minutes, checking for doneness as the chicken thighs are small and may cook faster.

While the chicken and vegetables are cooking, prepare rice in a rice cooker using a 2:1 ratio of rice to water and adding 1 teaspoon of vinegar for every cup of rice to prevent stickiness.

10

Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the rice cooker with the rice and water.

11

Cook the rice for about 20 minutes, then check for doneness.

Once everything is cooked, plate the chicken and vegetables alongside the fluffy rice, and serve.
