Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Fideo Noodles

    In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the fideo noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Peppers

    Add the diced tomato and bell pepper to the pot. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

  4. 4

    Combine with Noodles

    Return the cooked fideo noodles to the pot. Stir in the frozen peas, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until everything is heated through.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro. Serve warm in bowls.
