Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into strips
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
1 cup green beans, halved
1 ½ cups short grain white rice
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon sweet paprika
1 tablespoon tomato paste
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
14 oz diced tomato
3 cups vegetable broth
½ teaspoon saffron thread, crumbled, or 1/2 tablespoon ground turmeric
2 bay leaves
½ cup frozen peas
½ cup canned artichoke heart
½ cup vegan chorizon, optional
½ cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1 lemon, quartered, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the onion and cook until translucent, 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and cook for about 2 minutes until it is fragrant.
  • Add the yellow bell peppers, red bell peppers, and green beans. Cook stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until tender.
  • Add the rice, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, tomato paste, salt, and pepper. Stir until incorporated. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the rice starts to sizzle.
  • Add the canned tomatoes. Cook for 5 minutes until the liquid has evaporated slightly.
  • Add the vegetable broth, saffron threads (crush the saffron threads between your fingertips), and bay leaves. Bring to a boil on high heat. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed by the rice, about 10 minutes.
  • Add in the peas, artichokes, and sausage, if using. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and let sit covered for 10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the fresh parsley.
  • Enjoy!

This paella was a disappointment. The rice was undercooked and the vegetables were mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.

This paella was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more spices.

This was a delicious and easy-to-make dish. I used frozen artichoke hearts and peas, and it still turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.
