1 Chicken -- cut up
Marinate the chicken in the criollo sauce overnight in
the fridge. Shrimp can
also be added.
In a large pan put a little oil and saute the bell

tiny bit of oil.
Add the beer, tomatoes, turmeric, saffron, turmeric,
food coloring (if you use
it) And bring this to heat. Add the drained chicken,
cover and simmer on very
low heat until the rice is cooked and separate.
Approximately 15 minutes.
Then add the drained jar of green olives, some frozen
green peas (the heat of
the rice will cook them), and the pimentos.
If you increase the amount of rice just add chicken
stock to cover about 1 inch. Because it's so flexible
this is a good company dish. And very pretty.
