Ingredients:
4 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 lb uncooked rice

3 tomatoes, peeled
1 garlic clove
1 onion, chopped
1 pinch saffron
parsley, to taste
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 cup chicken stock
10 ounces frozen peas, cooked
1/4 lb mushroom, sliced
Directions:
1. In a large pot, blend the olive oil, rice, chicken or veal pieces, tomatoes, garlic, onion, saffron, parsley, salt and pepper. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Place in a casserole and add the chicken stock. Cover and bake slowly in a 325 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the rice has absorbed the stock. Blend in the peas and mushrooms and cook for an additional seven minutes.
