Heat a pot with a bit of oil.
2 tbsp olive oil
Add minced garlic, bell pepper and onion. (You can add chorizo here - if you want to add meat!)
1/2 bell pepper, 1/2 onion, 1 tbsp minced garlic, 1/2 lb chorizo
Fry everything for around 3 minutes before adding uncooked rice, tomatoes, chicken broth, water, beans, corn, smoked paprika and cumin.
8 oz pkg yellow saffron rice, 14.5 oz fire roasted tomatoes, 14.5 oz chicken broth, 1.5 cups water, 14.5 oz red beans, 8.25 oz corn, 2 tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tbsp cumin
Stir everything together and simmer on medium for 15 minutes. Stir and check the moisture level and rice doneness. – If rice isn’t done, and there’s still liquid – cook for 5 min more – If rice isn’t done, but pot is dry and starting to stick – lower heat and add 1/2 cup water and cook for five minutes more. – If rice is done – you’re ready to serve!
Stir to mix everything and top with sliced green olives
