We enjoyed this. A good dish all around, but I thought it could use more paprika. Instead of making on the stovetop, I used my rice cooker; which worked beautifully. Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT8

My results weren't as great as Annacia's. :( It was rather bland. and it made a LOT. I would cut back on the rice/liquid, use broth & more seasonings. I used lima beans that I cooked up & had extras from another dish I made. The white of the beans blended in...Annacia's is so much better looking! Made for ZWT8 Spain/Portugal.

First, I love this!. Second, It took 20-25 mins start to finish. The flavor is scrumptious, I used a double amount of Spanish smoked paprika and all else as written. I made a veggie dinner tonight and this was a perfect main. This will most certainly be enjoyed again. :D
