This dish calls for packaged saffron yellow rice along with artichokes, shrimp and peas. The picture in my Trim and Terrific cookbook looks beautiful. Ingredients:
2 (5 ounce) packages saffron yellow rice |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
1/4 cup lemon juice |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1 dash cayenne pepper |
1 lb medium shrimp, cooked and peeled |
1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained |
3/4 cup green bell pepper, chopped |
1 cup frozen green pea, thawed |
1 cup tomato, chopped |
1 (2 ounce) jar diced pimentos, drained |
1/2 cup red onion, chopped |
2 ounces prosciutto, chopped |
Directions:
1. Prepare the rice according to the package directions, omitting any oil and salt. Set aside.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the vinegar, lemon juice, oil, basil, pepper and cayenne; set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice with the cooked shrimp, artichoke hearts, green pepper, peas, tomato, pimento, red onion, and prosciutto, mixing well. Pour the dressing over the rice mixture, tossing to coat. Cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
