Shrimp Paella is a Spanish seafood and rice dish, prized for the crispy bits of rice that come from letting the rice sizzle inside the pan and the deep yellow color from saffron. We cheat the coloration with less highly-priced ground turmeric and speed the process with precooked brown rice.  Make positive to spread the rice combination in an excellent layer so the bottom can crisp. The shrimp takes much less than five minutes to prepare dinner. Rinse properly below bloodless running water until completely thawed, and then pat dry earlier than adding to the pan. Serve with sincerely steamed asparagus to spherical out the meal.
