Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 servings

Ingredients

Omit

Pasta
Basil

Swap

Dry sherry for white vermouth

Add

2 tablespoons EVOO
1 small white onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups white rice
3 cups chicken stock or broth
1/2 cup jumbo green Spanish olives with pimientos, coarsely chopped

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Start by making the rice. Place a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add the 2 tablespoons of EVOO and the onions. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then add the rice and lightly toast, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock and cover the rice with a lid to bring the stock to a rapid boil. When the stock comes to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, for 17 minutes, or until tender.

    Step 2

    Proceed as for the master recipe, #147, cooking the seasoned shrimp in the 1/4 cup EVOO with the garlic, tomatoes, scallions, and parsley. Add the sherry when you would add the vermouth. Stir in the olives and remove from the heat.

    Step 3

    Serve the shrimp over the rice.
