    This recipe is pretty good. But it's a bit bland. Although I don't regret trying it, it could definitely use more oomph.

    Mediterranean Chicken Paella, This is a quick and easy recipe to use up an leftover chicken, this is also good with leftover turkey too For brilliant yellow rice sub 1/2 teaspoon tumeric for the saffron if desired! Adjust all the amounts (except the rice and liquids) to taste , This recipe is pretty good But it’s a bit bland Although I don’t regret trying it, it could definitely use more oomph , I made this recipe with Vigo yellow rice instead of long grain rice I did not use all of the additional spices, since that rice is already flavored It was delicious! I will make this again and can’t wait to eat the leftovers tomorrow
