Party Paella - 33g Carbs, 5g Fiber
From: www.wellfedheart.com
Our heart-healthy and well-balanced paella sacrifices none of the flavor. We've used sausage, chicken and shrimp, but in moderation. Coriander and turmeric contribute beautiful color and flavor for an impressive but simple dish that looks like you spent hours preparing. Toss a salad, and ring the dinner bell.
Serves: 6
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 red bell peppers, chopped
6 oz low sodium turkey or chicken sausage, cubed
1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
3 cups cooked brown rice, moist
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
3 tsp lemon juice
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp each coriander and turmeric
12 oz small frozen shrimp, thawed and peeled
In a medium nonstick skillet, heat olive oil. Saute onion, sausage, chicken breast, and red pepper until sausage is cooked all the way through, about 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, mix together the cooked rice, peas, lemon juice, garlic, coriander, and turmeric.
Add rice mixture to the skillet and stir until combined. Place shrimp on top, reduce heat to low, and simmer until shrimp are pink, about 3 minutes. If rice mixture is drying out, add a few tablespoons of water to keep it moist.

THE SEASONED COOK This is a great recipe for festive occasions. It's fast and easy but looks like you took a long time in the kitchen. Shrimp is high in protein and low in calories and fat. Read the label carefully for fat content in sausage.
