Filipino Rice Arroz Valenciana Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add paprika and mix well. Add chicken, sweet peas, olives, chorizo, salt, and pepper; mix thoroughly. Cover and cook until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until juices are released, about 5 minutes. Add water; cook until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Add sweet rice; mix well. Cover and cook until flavors blend, about 5 minutes.
• Pour coconut milk into the skillet and bring to a boil. Cook until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Add red bell pepper. Cover and cook until rice is tender and chicken is no longer pink near the bone, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Garnish with hard-boiled eggs.

Steps:

• Dissolve the bouillon cube in 2 cups of hot water in a small bowl or liquid measuring cup.
• Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. dd the onions and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the onions start to become translucent, about 1 minute. Add the chicken and 2 teaspoons salt and cook until the chicken is opaque but not cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and turmeric and stir until the turmeric is evenly distributed. Add the sausage, raisins, coconut milk and bouillon broth and stir for 1 minute. Cover and cook on medium-low heat until almost all the liquid is absorbed, about 35 minutes.
• Add the red and green bell peppers, carrots and peas and gently stir. Continue to cook the rice covered until the vegetables are slightly softened and there is no more liquid, about 10 minutes.
• Season with salt and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with the hard-boiled eggs and scallions.
