Mix together all-purpose flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt and black pepper in a medium bowl. Pat chicken thighs dry using a paper towel. Dredge chicken thighs in the seasoned flour mixture, coating all sides.
Heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet (on medium-high heat). Carefully add chicken thighs to hot oil. Cook them for 4 minutes, without moving them in skillet. Flip chicken over and cook the other side for 3-4 minutes until crispy and well-browned. Remove chicken to a plate and let rest. (Don't worry if it's not all the way done - the chicken will finish cooking later!).
Add 1 Tablespoon olive oil back into the skillet you cooked the chicken in and turn heat to medium. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, thyme and oregano. Stir, and cook for 1 minute. Add salt and pepper to lightly season.
Pour in the uncooked orzo. Pour in the white wine and the chicken broth, then stir to combine ingredients. Once the ingredients are stirred, bring liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat down to medium. Place the chicken thighs into the skillet on top of the orzo. Cover skillet with a lid; cook for 10 minutes (or until the orzo is fully cooked).
Remove skillet from heat; remove lid. Add kalamata olives, crumbled feta cheese, chopped fresh parsley, and lemon wedges to the skillet as garnish. Serve, and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Don't have boneless chicken thighs? Use chicken thighs with bones, but cook chicken about 1 minute longer per side when pan-searing.
