1. Heat the olive oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until the vegetables soften.
2. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Add the chicken, bay leaves and the remaining salt and pepper.
3. Add the water and rice and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to medium-low and cook uncovered for 25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
4. Move the chicken to a cutting board and dice into ½-inch pieces. Return the chopped chicken to the pot and take it off the heat. Stir in the lemon juice and parsley.
