  • 1 cup red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup saffron rice
  • 2 cups chicken broth

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Rice:

    • Add the saffron rice and stir to coat the rice with the oil.
    • Pour in the chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed (about 15-20 minutes). Fluff with a fork and set aside.
  2. Cook the Steak:
    • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat.
    • Season the steak pieces with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
    • Add the steak to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the Shrimp:
    • In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter.
    • Season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and paprika.
    • Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until pink and opaque (about 2-3 minutes per side). Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Combine and Serve:
    • In the same skillet, add the diced red and green bell peppers. Sauté until they are slightly softened.
    • Return the steak and shrimp to the skillet, and toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
