Ingredients

250 gr. round rice
2 ripe tomatoes
1 green pepper
1 cebolla
3 cloves of garlic
200 gr. of lean pork or 500 gr. chopped chicken
1 handful of fresh or frozen peas
1 handful of green asparagus, chopped
3 artichokes in quarters
a few fresh sliced mushrooms
paprika
water or chicken broth
oil
salt pepper

Preparation

We start by putting a good bottom of oil in a pot in which we will brown the chicken or the seasoned lean meat. We remove it and leave the oil in the pot.
Finely chop the garlic, onion and pepper. Peel the tomato and grate it. We make the rice stir-fry by sautéing all the vegetables except the tomato, which we will add once the first ones are tender. Add the bay leaf to this sauce.
Now we put the chicken back in the pot. Add the paprika to taste and a splash of wine. Let cook over medium heat until the wine is reduced.
It is the turn to add the mushrooms, artichokes and asparagus to the stew. Cook the vegetables for a few minutes.
Then, we add the necessary broth or water, which will be approximately two and a half parts with respect to the rice (we use a glass or cup to measure what the rice occupies).
Add the rice when the broth is boiling, add salt and cook for about 18 minutes until the rice is tender. Halfway through cooking add the peas.

Note: This type of stewed rice is best left to rest for a few minutes before serving so that they cool a bit and take on the right texture and become more powerful in flavor.
