👨‍🍳 Инструкции

1
Season the chicken pieces generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat (around 200°C / 400°F). Sear the chicken in batches until deeply golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Do not overcrowd the pot. Remove the browned chicken and set aside on a plate.
⏱️ 15 minutes
2
Reduce the heat to medium (around 175°C / 350°F). Add the diced bell peppers to the pot and sauté until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the sofrito and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and slightly darkened, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the tomato sauce, beer, chicken broth, and saffron (or Bijol). Bring the mixture to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
⏱️ 10 minutes
3
Stir the rinsed rice into the simmering liquid until well combined. Taste the liquid and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Return the browned chicken pieces to the pot, nestling them into the rice mixture. Ensure the liquid mostly covers the rice and chicken. Bring back to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot tightly, and cook undisturbed for 20 minutes.
⏱️ 25 minutes
4
After 20 minutes, gently stir in the thawed peas. Replace the lid and continue to cook for another 5-10 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed. Remove the pot from the heat and let it rest, covered, for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with sliced pimento-stuffed olives, if desired.
⏱️ 15 minutes (includes resting time)

💡 Профессиональные советы

✓For the best flavor and texture, use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and drumsticks.
✓Rinsing the rice is crucial to remove excess starch, preventing the final dish from becoming gummy.
✓Resist the urge to stir the rice once it's covered and cooking; this allows it to steam properly.
✓Allowing the dish to rest, covered, off the heat is essential for the flavors to meld and the rice to finish steaming perfectly.
