Sprinkle the chicken pieces with ½ tsp. salt, ¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper and ½ tsp. paprika. Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat – add chicken to the skillet when pan/oil is hot and cook for 3 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Add pine nuts to skillet and gently toast (stirring constantly) over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until the nuts begin to take on a golden brown color. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil, uncooked rice, artichoke hearts, Italian (or Greek) seasoning, salt, pepper, lemon peel and juice of 1/2 of the lemon and the chicken broth. Add the chicken along with its juices and gently nestle the chicken in to the rice mixture.

Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover tightly. Simmer for 20-25 minutes or until rice is cooked. Sprinkle with the remaining half of the lemon and parsley.
