Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
In a large Skillet (ideally one you can make the whole thing in and pop in the oven but if not just a large skillet) add some of the oil from the sun dried tomatoes, allow that to preheat slightly over medium heat, while that happens, season both sides of the chicken with the garlic and herb and salt and pepper.
Place the chicken skin side down and sear until deeply golden brown, this will take out 10 minutes, then flip and cook 3 more minutes, then remove to a plate. In a large measuring cup, add the tomato sauce and stock and pop it in the microwave for a couple minutes (or you can heat the up in a small skillet).
Discard the rendered fat, add the stock and tomato sauce mixture, seasoning, garlic, sun dried tomatoes, olives, good pinch of salt, and rice, stir to combine then add the chicken in, cover the whole thing with foil, bake covered for 30 minutes then remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 30 minutes.
Sprinkle with some fresh herbs and serve!
