Make quick and authentic paella with fresh vegetables, rice, and saffron without needing any special pans. Delicious!
Ingredients:
  • 1 pound asparagus, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 3 cups broccoli flowerets
  • 2 teaspoons olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped (1 cup)
  • 2 small zucchini, chopped (1 1/4 cups)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 4 cups cooked brown or regular long-grain rice
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon saffron threads or 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 2 large tomatoes, seeded and chopped (2 cups)
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) Progresso™ chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained, rinsed
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen green peas, thawed
Instructions:
  • Boil asparagus and broccoli in generously salted water in a saucepan for about 4 minutes until they are crisp-tender. Drain well before serving.
  • In a 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sauté asparagus, broccoli, bell pepper, zucchini, and onion for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is crisp-tender.
