Arroz Con Bogavante | Traditional Rice Dish From Valencian Community, Spain | TasteAtlas

Arroz con bogavante

(Arroz caldoso con bogavante)

Arroz con bogavante is a traditional rice dish originating from Valencia. This brothy rice dish is usually made with a combination of round rice such as arroz bomba, lobster, fish stock, white wine, shrimps, onions, garlic, bell peppers, tomatoes, paprika, saffron, olive oil, and seasonings.


The ingredients are sautéed in a pan, then simmered in stock until everything is fully cooked. There should be leftover liquid in the pan, as this dish should be brothy and the rice should float in a liquid broth. The pan is covered and the dish is left to rest for a few minutes before serving.


Arroz con bogavante is often prepared for celebrations and special occasions. If desired, garnish the dish with chopped parsley.
