The necessary ingredients for making chicken with rice and vegetables Catalan style. Thaw the chicken, rub it with salt and spices. In a frying pan, heat vegetable oil and fry the chicken drumsticks until golden brown, then transfer them to a plate and set aside for a while. Finely chop the onion, grate the carrot. Cut the bell pepper into cubes. Dice the tomato. Mince the garlic. In the same oil where the chicken was fried, sauté the onion until translucent and the carrot.

Add liquid as needed. Check if there's enough salt. At the end, place the chicken on top of the rice and vegetables, cover everything with a lid and simmer on low heat for another 10 minutes.
