Steps:
- Rinse the rice well and place it in a large bowl. Cover with water and let it soak for 15 to 20 minutes or until you can easily break one grain of rice. Drain well.
- In a large deep pan (with a lid), heat 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, bell peppers, garlic, peas, and parsley. Season with kosher salt. Cook for 3 minutes or so, tossing regularly. Add coriander, Aleppo pepper, cumin, and paprika. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes or so, tossing occasionally, until the vegetables have soften a bit.
- Add the rice (well drained) and season with a good pinch of kosher salt. Add water. Bring to a boil until the liquid has reduced by about 1/2 (you should be able to see the rice, liquid should be barely covering the top). Turn the heat to low. Cover and let the rice cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until fully cooked and not hard nor chewy.
- While the rice is cooking, pat the shrimp dry and toss with a bit of kosher salt.
- Uncover the pan and add the shrimp nestling it into the rice. Cover and cook for 3 to 5 minutes more or until the shrimp is pink and fully cooked.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve!

Tips:
- Use a good quality rice: The type of rice you use will greatly affect the final dish. For this recipe, a long-grain rice like basmati or jasmine is a good choice.
- Rinse the rice before cooking: This will help to remove any starch and prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
- Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use to cook the rice will add a lot of flavor to the dish. A good option is to use a seafood broth made from shrimp shells, fish bones, and vegetables.
- Sauté the shrimp before adding to the rice: This will help to give the shrimp a nice browned color and enhance the flavor.
- Add vegetables to the rice: Vegetables like peas, carrots, and bell peppers can add color, texture, and flavor to the dish.
- Season the rice well: Be sure to season the rice with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Let the rice rest before serving: After the rice is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the rice to absorb all of the flavors.
Conclusion:
Rice with shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that the whole family will enjoy.
