Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make rice with seafood? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Rinse the rice several times until the water is clean. Instead of sea cocktail, you can simply use shrimp or mussels. When purchasing frozen seafood, be sure to pay attention to the conditions in which they were stored and whether there is excess ice, which may indicate repeated defrosting. I took short grain rice. You can use wild rice instead of regular rice.

Wash the bell pepper, dry it and remove its seeds and stem. Cut the pepper into small pieces.
