You will all love it. Not to forget that everything is ready in less than 30 minutes. Here is the recipe. In a pot, I put a tablespoon of butter with another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Mix to melt the butter. Once it's done, take some shrimps. Mine are pre-cooked shrimps, but also with their shells. I took care to cut them. I'll show you what to do with the shells of these shrimps. Except that I kept a few with their shells for decoration at the end of the cooking of this meal. Since these are pre-cooked shrimps, I brought them back just 2 minutes from both sides to have their juice, which will serve as a base for the cooking of this meal. Now, here is a pot with water. I didn't put salt, just water. And I plunged the shells of the shrimps to have a shrimp broth. I boil them. Once it's boiled, I remove the pot and I filter it to use it as broth in this meal. As for the shrimps, I put a little salt and pepper and I bring them back from both sides. After 2 minutes, I turn them over to cook them on the other side. Above all, friends, I'm counting on you to like and share the video. And for more easy, quick meals, I invite you to subscribe. I have another paella recipe with seafood and chicken. I will leave you the link to this video at the bottom of this one in the description section. Once the shrimps are cooked, remove them and reserve them aside. In the shrimp juice and broth, put a medium onion, cut into small pieces, with 3 cloves of garlic. Bring them back to this juice for about 2 minutes until the onion is translucent and it absorbs the shrimp cooking juice which mixes with its taste. Then take a red pepper and a yellow pepper, cut them into small dice, also pour them into the marmite. Mix and cook them for about 2 minutes. If you want, you can cover the marmite after adding the peppers so that it does not burn and so that it softens. Once it's done, add 3 tomatoes, small grated tomatoes. Also mix and cook them for about 1 to 2 minutes so that all the flavors are well mixed. Regarding the seasoning of this dish, no need to put too much spice. The one I'm going to put, mix them, gives a very good taste to this rice. A teaspoon of cumin, another teaspoon of ground coriander and a teaspoon of turmeric with a teaspoon of paprika. If you have saffron, you can add it too, but otherwise the mixture of paprika with turmeric gives a beautiful color that looks like the one you will have if you add saffron. Mix and bring everything back between 2 to 3 minutes while mixing during this cooking time. And so that the rice has flavor, we also bring it back at this time with what is in the marmite. I took a measure of rice, it is important to rinse it well until the water is clear so that it does not stick after cooking. So add it to the marmite, also bring it back for about 1 minute so that it absorbs the taste and flavors of the mixture. Regarding the rice, I took basmati rice. Personally, this is the one I use the most, but if you want, you can also use strained rice. I take the glass that I used to measure the rice and here is the shrimp broth. After filtering it, I fill the glass twice with a quarter of the shrimp broth. Generally, to cook the rice, we put a measure of this one with two measures of water. But believe me, with experience, I give you this tip to add an extra quarter of water to your rice, which will allow you to have a rice that is well aerated, which is not sticky. To enhance the taste and fragrance of the fish in your meal, I suggest you add a cube of fish broth and it is optional, but if you can add it, do it, do not hesitate to do it, because your dish will be divine. With a little salt, no need to put too much, because the fish broth is salty. Mix. Subsequently, I took a little frozen fish, about half a measure, pour it at this time, mix to distribute it inside the marmite and it is at this time also that I take half of the shrimps, I add it so that we find some shrimps inside the rice. Without forgetting to add the juice of half a lemon, mix, cover and cook for 10 minutes on medium heat of course, and above all, do not touch the rice, do not mix it during this cooking time. I keep the rest of the shrimps for the end of the cooking of this dish. After 10 minutes of cooking, do not mix either, leave the dish as it is, you just need to arrange the shrimps that we had reserved aside, arrange them on the dish, press on it so that it absorbs the juice, cover and cook for 5 more minutes. After this extra time, everything is well cooked, especially do not mix, cover the dish and leave it aside the time to prepare your table. It is ready to be tasted. Just before serving it, put a few slices of lemon and you taste it, a good meal that is prepared in less than 30 minutes, but it is especially tasty. A nice paella that is easy, last minute, that you can prepare for your family or your guests. In any case, it is a delight. I hope the recipe is to your liking. Take care and see you next time.
