Tasty, certainly easy! I used water but fish broth or bouillon cubes would intensify flavors, but did not have- did not realize there was such a thing. Have so much to learn. Next time I would also use less liquid. I added 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper but now think smoked paprika would be good. I added some peas for some green. Thank you for sharing.

This was fabulous. For the seafood, I used a combination of shrimp and cod. And I tossed in a minced jalapeno pepper for a little "heat". I followed the recipe exactly from there, and it was a big hit in my house. I really love Spanish cuisine, and this is one great recipe to keep on file for making time and time again in the future. Thank you for sharing your recipe, awalde. Made for the monthly tag game in the Spain/Portugal forum.
