Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 5
  • 600 g rice
  • 1 1/2 kg chicken, cut into small pieces
  • 375 g rabbit, cut into small pieces
  • 2 green peppers, diced
  • 2 red peppers, diced
  • 2 tomatoes, liquified (not grated)
  • 3 -5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 head garlic

  • 2 liters water

Recipe

  • 1 in a paella pan or large heavy skillet heat the oil and the garlic.
  • 2 add the meat and let it absorb some of the garlic flavor, until it's slightly golden (the meat that is).
  • 3 remove the meat and boil along with the water and the beans until tender.
  • 4 fry the peppers and set them aside.
  • 5 you should still have quite a lot of oil in the pan, if not, add more.
  • 6 add the rice and stir on a high heat for 1 minute.
  • 7 add the meat and the liquid it's been simmering in.
  • 8 stir once, scraping the bottom well.
  • 9 cook rice for 10 minutes and add the peppers.
  • 10 cook for a further 10 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed.
  • 11 test the rice, if undercooked, add a little more boiling water and repeat the process.
  • 12 when rice is cooked, turn off the heat and cover with a clean cloth and let it stand for 10 minutes.
  • 13 serve with a quarter of a lemon per plate and some ali-oli.
