Directions
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 sauté the bell pepper and onion.
Adding the rice to just coat with a 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.
