Wash chicken and pat-dry. Cut into 1 inch chunks. Spray a medium-size pan with non-stick cooking spray. Brown chicken over medium heat and remove from pan. Add celery, onion, green onion, pepper and tomatoes to same pot and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. Return chicken to the pan. Add rice, water, bouillon, bay leaf and cayenne pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and let simmer for about 50 minutes. (Instant brown rice will require a different cook time.) Stir in parsley and serve warm.
