-1 onion, chopped or sliced
-2-3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
-2 cups of rice
-4 cups of chicken broth (2 1/2 if you are using basmati rice)
-1 tsp. oregano
-1 tsp. paprika
- saffron (about .1 grams, less if you want it less flavorful)
-1 or 2 red peppers, sliced
whatever "cooked" goodies you'd like, I use: cubed, grilled chicken,
slices of sausage, sliced beef, shrimp, scallops and fish. But, you can
add all the seafood you'd like, or you have at hand (it's a great
leftover dish).
Anyway, here's what you do:
Fry the onions in oil until golden, add the uncooked rice and fry until
shiny. Add the broth, oregano, paprika, garlic and red peppers. Powder
the saffron (I use a mortar) and mix it with a little bit of broth. Add
it to the rice and mix well. Bring to a boil, and then simmer for about
15 minutes. You can do this either inside the oven (about 350 F) or on
the stove top. I prefer the latter, as it's easier to check. Add the
goodies and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until the rice is done.
