"My family always makes this Filipino version of Spanish paella for holidays and other get-togethers," shares recipe author Maya Ferrante, "and it's certainly easy to make any day of the week. Ingredients vary across the Philippines. Some add clams, chorizo, chicken liver, or pork, but my family always makes it this way—simple, vibrant, and delicious."

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Dissolve the bouillon cube in 2 cups of hot water in a small bowl. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the onion begins to turn translucent, about 1 minute.
- Add the chicken and 2 teaspoons of salt and cook until the chicken is white but not cooked through, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and turmeric and stir until the turmeric is evenly distributed. Add the sausage, raisins, coconut milk, and reduced broth and stir for 1 minute. Cover and simmer over low heat until almost all the liquid is absorbed, about 35 minutes.
- Add the red and green bell peppers, carrots, and peas and stir gently. Continue cooking the rice, covered, until the vegetables are slightly softened and the liquid stops releasing, about 10 minutes.
- Season with salt and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with hard-boiled eggs and green onions.
