Cooking Time 25 minutes

Ingredients

15 ml olive oil
1 onion, cut into thin wedges
4 cloves garlic, chopped
3 tomatoes, chopped
1 t turmeric

1 packet frozen, peeled prawns
3 chicken breasts, sliced into quarters
150 g frozen peas
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Method

Heat the oil in a deep frying pan and cook the onions until soft , about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and tomato and simmer for 5 minutes.

Add the tumeric, paprika and rice. Pour in the stock, bring to the boil and then simmer for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally until rice is nearly cooked.

Add the prawns and chicken and cook for 5 minutes. Add the peas and heat through. Season and squeeze over a little lemon juice. Serve hot.

Cooks note: If you like, use mussels or calamari instead of prawns or just the chicken.
