Preparation
- Place the chicken bones in a pot with water to cook for 20 minutes and strain the liquid. Add the salt and saffron to the water so that it releases the color.
- Mix the spices in a bowl and season the chicken. Brown the chicken and set aside. Then, in the same pan, brown the onion with carrots and chorizos. Add the rice and stir together, browning.
- Add green peppers, red peppers, chicken, and boiling chicken broth with saffron and beer. Cover the pan and simmer for 17 minutes.
- After 17 minutes add peas, olives, capers and caper vinaigrette to the top of the dish. Cover and cook for 3 more minutes. Uncover, add the coriander and stir.
- Serve immediately.
