In Spain this is taken seriously...taking hours to prepare properly.
this is a "cheater" version, around 20 minutes, if you chop quickly=)
This has a very mild flavor.
Saute about 1 minute
1 T olive oil, hot in pan
2 c diced onions
(if using 1 fresh colored pepper, thinly cubed - add here, OR if using 1/2 c canned & roasted pepper, add with tomatoes)
then add:
4 garlic cloves or 1 1/2 t minced garlic
about 1 minute. Now add:
3/4 lb boneless, skinless chicken, cubed and cooked OR
if using raw chicken, brown on each side for 2 minutes before adding:
1/2 c Valencia or Arborio rice
Stir one minute to coat rice then add:
1 1/2 c chicken broth
1-2 zucchini, sliced thin
4 large roma tomatoes, cubed
1 c frozen peas
1/4 t saffron
Bring to a boil then simmer for 15 minutes
the liquid will be absorbed and you can now season with
salt and pepper to taste
2-4 servings
We ate it with a green salad and artichoke antipasto on sourdough
and had plenty of room for your lemon scones later=)
