Transfer the tomato-onion mixture to a measuring container, you should get 1 glass. Remove seeds from chili peppers and cut 1.5 peppers into thin strips. Set aside.
- Pour the rice into a sieve or a colander with fine holes and rinse well under running water (about 2 minutes). Then pour onto a clean waffle towel and dry well.
- Heat an ovenproof dish over medium heat, add oil and heat for about 1 minute. Pour rice into a preheated pan and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 4-6 minutes. Put the garlic and chopped peppers in a pan, fry, stirring occasionally, for about 30 seconds. Add tomato-onion mixture, broth, tomato paste and salt. Increase heat and bring to a boil. Cover the dish with a lid and place in a preheated oven. Bake until the liquid has completely evaporated, about 25-30 minutes, while stirring the rice once 10 minutes after putting the dish in the oven.
- Turn off the oven. Add chopped cilantro and the remaining half of the chili to the cooked rice. Cover the rice and place in the oven, leave there until the shrimp is cooked.
- In a small saucepan, heat 1/4 cup vegetable oil over medium heat. Put the halves of the garlic cloves in the heated oil. Reduce heat to low and fry garlic until soft, about 12-15 minutes. Remove the garlic from the saucepan using a slotted spoon, and leave the oil. Put the garlic on a board and knead with the flat side of a knife into a paste.
- Rinse the peeled shrimps, put on a paper towel, dry, season with salt and pepper. Heat the garlic oil in a large skillet until simmering. Put the shrimp in the heated oil and fry, stirring occasionally, for about 3-5 minutes. Transfer shrimp to a plate and cover with foil.
