Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep the shallot, pepper and tomatoes

  • Peel and thinly slice the shallots.
  • Slice the pepper into thin strips. Discard the seeds.
  • Core and coarsely chop the tomatoes.

2

Cook the vegetables and rice

In a 12-inch frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the shallots, bell pepper and rice. Season with salt. Cook, stirring, to coat the rice with oil, until the shallots soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the bay leaf, spice blend, tomatoes, red wine or sherry, if using, and 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce the heat to medium low. Simmer until the tomatoes have released most of their juices and the rice has absorbed most of the water, about 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, prep the rest of the vegetables.

3

Prep artichoke, olives and parsley

  • Coarsely chop the artichokes.
  • Slice the olives in half.
  • Chop the parsley.
  • Chop the almonds.

Toss ingredients together, serve

Once most of the water has been absorbed, stir in the artichokes, olives, parsley and almonds. Season with salt to taste. Divide evenly between two bowls.
