3. Add beef broth, 1 cup of water, rice and seasonings. Bring to boil, reduce to simmer and cover. Simmer for 25 to 30 minutes or until rice is tender. Add additional water if necessary. This dish should be loose with a good amount of sauce. Stir in seafood, cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until seafood is pink and cooked through. Taste and add salt if necessary. If you used regular beef broth( not low sodium) you probably will not have to add salt.
4. Stir in tomatoes and top with green onions. Serve with crusty bread and a salad for a complete meal.
