Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, combine the juice of one lemon, minced garlic cloves, chopped fresh parsley, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Rub the lemon herb mixture all over the chicken breasts and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
In a large oven-proof skillet or pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the rice, making sure it is coated well with butter and onions. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth and stir in the paprika. Allow the mixture to come to a simmer.
Place the marinated chicken breasts on top of the rice mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid or foil.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender.
Once done, remove from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, then serve hot garnished with lemon slices and additional parsley if desired.
