Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 7-ounce link Spanish chorizo, cut in half horizontally and sliced into half moons
2 tablespoons Amore garlic paste, or 6 garlic cloves, chopped
1 large tomato, diced
1 14-ounce can low-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon saffron
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 8.8-ounce packages Uncle Ben's Original Long-Grain Ready Rice
1 cup frozen peas
1 1/4 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined

Steps:

  • Shrimp are normally an ingredient in paella and so is chorizo but I left the chicken and several other ingredients out to simplify it for you.
  • In a large saute pan heat chorizo over medium heat until fat is rendered, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant. Add tomato, chicken broth, and saffron; bring to a simmer. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add rice and frozen peas; stir to combine. Cover and bring up to a simmer. Let cook for about 2 minutes. Season shrimp with salt and pepper and lay on top of rice mixture. Cover and continue to cook until shrimp are just done, about 4 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, if necessary, and serve.

This paella was a total disaster. The rice was burnt, the seafood was overcooked, and the chorizo was way too salty. I'm never making this recipe again.

I was a little disappointed with this paella. The flavors were bland, and the rice was mushy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The rice was a little undercooked for my liking, but the flavors were still amazing. I'll definitely be making this again, but I'll cook the rice for a few minutes longer next time.

This paella was a little too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I'll be sure to use less chorizo next time.

I love the vibrant colors of this dish. It's so visually appealing, and it tastes even better than it looks!

This was my first time making paella, and it turned out great! The rice was fluffy and flavorful, and the seafood and chorizo were cooked perfectly.
