I created this recipe to replicate paella for a crowd. I love paella, but it's expensive and not everyone likes the mussels and sausage in it. Serve this dish with a good Spanish wine and some bread and oil and it will be a sure crowd-pleaser!
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1 box Spanish yellow rice mix , 7 ounce
- 3 tablespoons olive oil , divided
- 0.5 cups diced onion
- 1 pound uncooked medium shrimp , peeled and deveined
- 1 green bell pepper , diced
- 1 red bell pepper , diced
- 1 tablespoon sweet and spicy seafood seasoning , such as McCormick®
- 0.5 cups fresh parsley , or to taste
Instructions

1
Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add rice mix and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Boil for 1 minute; cover and reduce heat. Simmer until water is absorbed, about 25 minutes.

2
Heat remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute until just soft, about 2 minutes. Add shrimp, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and seafood seasoning. Cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp are bright pink, about 5 minutes.

Tuscan Style Ribs (Rosticciana)
These Tuscan style ribs, or Rosticciana, are grilled relatively quickly to a beautiful rusty red, and drizzled with a bright citronette, a lemon-garlic dressing. They are pleasurably chewy and intensely delicious, proving that low and slow is not the only way to go when cooking ribs.
How to Make Dulce de Leche
If you have ever wondered how to make dulce de leche, which is basically sweet, caramelized milk, this recipe will show you that it is so easy and delicious. I like it better than caramel sauce — drizzle it on ice cream, toast, cookies, cakes, brownies, or people, lol.
Chocolate Cookie Cheesecake
What's better than cheesecake with a chocolate-cookie crust? I don't know what to say about this recipe other than it is decadent and hard to resist.
