Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish.
Stir rice, onion, 3 T. melted butter and flour together in the baking dish until flour has no white specks, spreading mixture out evenly in the dish. Pour in broth, heavy cream, salt and pepper; stir.
Place chicken on top of rice. Brush remaining butter on top; sprinkle on Italian seasoning, garlic powder and paprika.
Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 hour.
Remove foil. Bake another 30 minutes until rice and chicken are cooked through and the chicken skin is crispy. For an even crispier skin, place under the broiler for 2-3 minutes.
Serve immediately.
