Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Dice the bell pepper and onion, mince the garlic, and dice the tomato. Set aside all the prepared vegetables.

  2. 2

    Clean the Shrimp

    If using raw shrimp, make sure to peel and devein them. Rinse under cold water and set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are soft.

  2. 4

    Add Garlic and Tomato

    Add the minced garlic and diced tomato to the pot, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant and the tomato begins to break down.

  3. 5

    Cook the Rice

    Stir in the rice, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let it cook for about 2 minutes to toast the rice slightly.

  4. 6

    Add Broth and Shrimp

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, add the shrimp and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.

    Add Peas and Finish

    In the last 5 minutes of cooking, stir in the frozen peas and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
