Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup frozen onions and bell peppers (6 oz)
1/4 lb kielbasa (not low-fat), quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (1 cup)
2 cups instant long-grain white rice such as Uncle Ben's
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 1/4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (10 fl oz)
1/8 teaspoon crumbled saffron threads
20 frozen cleaned raw medium shrimp such as Contessa brand
1 1/4 lb cockles or other very small (1-inch-wide) hard-shelled clams, scrubbed
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup small pimiento-stuffed green olives

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until just smoking, then sauté garlic and frozen onions and peppers, stirring, until garlic and onions are golden, about 2 minutes. Add kielbasa and cook, stirring, until kielbasa is lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add rice, wine, broth, saffron, and shrimp and cook, covered and undisturbed, over high heat until most of liquid is absorbed and shrimp are cooked through, about 6 minutes. Stir in cockles, peas, and olives and cook, covered, until cockles open wide, 2 to 4 minutes. (Discard any cockles that remain unopened after 4 minutes.) Remove from heat and let stand, covered, until all liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.

This paella was a bit too expensive for my budget, but it was worth it. It was one of the best paellas I've ever had.

The rice in this paella was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the flavors were still very good.

I found this paella to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more salt and pepper.

This paella was a bit too spicy for my taste, but otherwise it was very good. I would recommend using less paprika next time.

This paella was easy to make and tasted amazing. I especially loved the crispy bits of rice on the bottom of the pan.
