Instructions
 

  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic, paprika, and cumin to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the rice and cook for a couple of minutes to toast the rice slightly.
  • Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juices) and chicken broth. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  • While the rice is cooking, season the shrimp with salt and pepper. In a separate skillet, heat a bit of olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through.
  • Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and gently fold in the cooked shrimp.
  • Serve the Spanish rice with shrimp hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
  • Enjoy!
