Make
- Heat a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add oil and then onions and peppers with a dash of salt. Saute for ~3 minutes.
- Then add in rice, tomato paste, paprika, and thyme. Stir to mix. Pour in stock and white wine, cover, and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer and then cook until rice has absorbed all the liquid, ~15 to 20 minutes.
- While rice is cooking, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbs. (15 ml) cooking oil and then shrimp to heated oil. Saute until almost done, ~6 minutes. Toss in garlic and season to taste with more salt and pepper. Remove from heat when done and toss with parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season to taste with salt.
- Return to rice. Toss in corn and peas and cook for another 5 minutes. Turn off heat and add in basil leaves. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy with shrimp!
- If making lentils tomorrow night, don't forget to soak them tonight with 3x the amount of water.
