Ingredients - 120ml Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, crushed
- 1 White onion, thinly sliced

Method - Pre-heat your oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and heat 2 tbsps of olive oil in a large, non-stick pan.
- Add your garlic and cook for 1 min, stirring as you go until fragrant before adding your onions and pepper and cooking for a further 8-10 mins until softened.
- Add your pesto and paella rice and stir until all your rice is coated before adding your stock, asparagus, broccoli and a large pinch of salt and pepper.
- Stir and then pop in the oven for 40 mins until your rice has absorbed all of your stock and is starting to become golden on top.
