Saffron Rice With Shrimp and Broccoli (Rice cooker) image

I came up with this last night when I was trying to figure out what to do with 1/2lb of shrimp. Turned out great and was easy!! What more do you need? I actually did this in my rice cooker, but could just as easily be done in a regular pot -

Saffron Arroz Con Camarones (Saffron Rice With Shrimp) image

This is another Cuban recipe I picked up. It is outstanding. You can go with regular white rice here, but breakdown and buy the Valencia rice online if you don't have it locally. It holds more liquid and gives your meal a more authentic look
