2 clove(s) Garlic
1 medium pepper(s) Red bell pepper
1/2 tbsp Turmeric, powder
1 tsp Paprika, smoked
1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper

3 cup Chicken broth (stock), low sodium
1 cup Frozen green peas
227 gm Seafood mix (frozen; or just frozen shrimp)
1 medium Lemon
1/2 cup Parsley, fresh (about 1 handful; chopped)

Instructions


  1. Dice the onion and mince the garlic. Add the olive oil, onion, and garlic to a large deep skillet. Saute over medium heat until the onions are soft and transparent (about 5 minutes).
  2. Meanwhile, dice the red bell pepper. Add the diced bell pepper to the skillet and saute for 1-2 minutes more.
  3. Add the uncooked rice, turmeric, smoked paprika, and cayenne to the skillet. Stir to combine. Pour in the chicken broth, stir briefly, then place a lid on the skillet.
  4. Turn the heat up to high and bring the broth to a boil. Once it reaches a full boil, turn the heat down to low and let simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. After 15 minutes, add the frozen seafood and frozen peas. Fold the seafood and peas into the skillet, then replace the lid. =
  6. Let the seafood and peas cook over low heat until the shrimp turn pink (about 5-10 minutes). Stir once halfway through to check the seafood buried in the rice for doneness.
  7. Once the seafood has finished cooking, top the skillet with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges. Squeeze the lemon juice over top of the seafood rice just before eating.
