Cook Time

The cook time for this recipe is approximately 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 packet of Goya yellow rice
  • 2 cups of water
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/2 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon of cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon of paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper

Equipment

  • A large skillet
  • A pot with a tight-fitting lid
  • A wooden spoon

Method

  1. Start by heating the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and peppers and cook until they're soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Next, add the garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds or until fragrant.
  3. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they're pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set them aside.
  4. In a separate pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the Goya yellow rice, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper to the pot and stir well.
  5. Once the rice has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid. Allow the rice to simmer for 20 minutes or until all of the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
  6. Once the rice is done cooking, fluff it with a fork and then add the cooked shrimp to the pot. Stir everything together until the shrimp are evenly distributed throughout the rice.
  7. Serve the goya yellow rice and shrimp hot and garnish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

If you want to add a little extra flavor to this recipe, try adding a can of diced tomatoes or a tablespoon of tomato paste to the skillet when you're cooking the onions and peppers.

Recipe Tips

If you're short on time, you can use pre-cooked shrimp instead of raw shrimp. Simply add the pre-cooked shrimp to the skillet with the onions and peppers and cook until they're heated through. To make this recipe even easier, you can use a pre-made spice blend instead of measuring out the cumin, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper separately. Just make sure to adjust the amount of seasoning to your taste.
