Spanish food. Two recipes of the day

Today for dinner I made Spanish rice with chicken breast that was left over from yesterday in it. I tend to always use the left overs because I don't like to see anything being wasted. I also made beans on the side. Enjoy the recipe (after the photos for each dish)
