Instructions

Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the oil, garlic, onion, celery, bell pepper and carrot, and cook for 6 to 8 minutes until the vegetables are browned and the onion is semi-translucent.
Add the smoked paprika, rice and tomatoes. Stir so every grain is coated, and cook for about 3 minutes until the tomato liquid has evaporated and the mixture is thick and sticky.
Add the chicken and shrimp, stir, then add the broth and bay leaves. Bring to a gentle simmer, lower the heat, cover and cook for 35 to 40 minutes until all the liquid is absorbed. Add a splash of broth or water if needed.
Garnish and serve.
