Name Spanish Rice with Chicken, Shrimp and Scallops
Number of People 4
List of Ingredients 3 tsp. olive oil

6 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breast, but into 3/4-inch cubes

6 oz. sea scallops

6 oz. medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

1/2 tsp. salt

1 small onion, chopped

3 garlic cloves, minced

3 plum tomatoes, chopped

1 tsp. ground cumin

1 cup quick-cooking brown rice

14 1/2 oz. can fat-free, lower-sodium chicken broth

10 pimiento-stuffed olives, sliced

3/4 cup frozen peas
Description Heat 2 tsp. of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.  Sprinkle the chicken, scallops, and shrimp with the salt.  Add the chicken to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes; transfer to a medium bowl.  Add the scallops and shrimp to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes; transfer to the bowl with the chicken.



Heat the remaining 1 tsp. oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the onion and garlic; cook, stirring, until the onion softens, about 3 minutes.  Stir in the tomatoes and cumin; cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes wilt, about 2 minutes.  Add the rice and cook, stirring, 30 seconds.  Add the broth, olives, and peas; bring to a boil.  Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the rice is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes.



Stir in the chicken, scallops and shrimp and heat through, about 2 minutes.  Remove from the heat and let stand 2 minutes before serving.
