Cut the boneless chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides for about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same pan, add the chopped onion and sauté for 2 minutes until translucent.
Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 2-3 minutes until softened.
Stir in the diced scotch bonnet pepper (remove seeds for less heat), paprika, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the parboiled rice and stir to coat the grains with the spices and oil.
Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes. Stir well to combine.
Return the browned chicken to the pan, nestling the pieces into the rice mixture.
Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Remove from heat and let the pilaf rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Caribbean Spicy Chicken and Mushroom Pilaf!
