Put a little oil in the bottom of the pot and cook garlic, scallions, green pepper, onion, other package of Sazon, and a sprinkle of black pepper until tender. While veggies are cooking remove skin and bones from chicken and cut-up into small pieces.
Add chicken to veggies and cook for 5 minutes then add 1 inch of broth that was set aside. Let simmer for 5-10 minutes then add the remainder of the broth and the rice. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low and cook for 20 minutes or until rice is done.
