Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.
2
Add the mixed vegetables, flour, and paprika to the pot. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the vegetables are tender and the flour is lightly browned.
3
Add the chicken broth to the pot and bring to a boil. Stir in the rice and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the liquid is mostly absorbed.
