1
In a fine-mesh sieve, rinse your Basmati rice under cool running water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the rice from being clumpy.
2
In a large skillet, heat your vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
3
Sauté your finely chopped onion in the heated oil until it becomes translucent, usually takes around 2-3 minutes.
4
Add your minced garlic, ground paprika, cumin, salt and black pepper. Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
5
Add your diced bell pepper and green peas, sauté them with the onion and garlic for about 2 minutes.
6
Add your rinsed Basmati rice to the skillet. Stir it well to ensure each grain is coated in the oil and onion mixture.
7
Pour in your chicken broth and stir. Once the broth starts boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid and let the rice cook for about 12 minutes until all the broth is absorbed.
8
Next, stir in your pre-cooked shrimp, just enough to warm them through. It will usually take about 2 minutes.
9
Remove from heat, sprinkle over the top with Parmesan cheese, cover with the lid and let it sit for 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
10
Serve right out of the skillet and enjoy your Shrimp Fiesta Rice Skillet while hot.
