Cook Rice and Sauté Vegetables

Cook the rice according to package instructions and set aside. Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray or olive oil. Add sliced bell pepper and onion, sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes, then add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Cook Chicken and Simmer

Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the chicken chunks to the center. Cook until browned on all sides, about 5-6 minutes. Stir in the canned diced tomatoes, tomato paste, dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well, bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
