Paella Recipe
Paella is one of the most popular of current trending meals in the world. It is easy, it is quick, it tastes yummy. It is enjoyed by millions every day. Paella is something which I’ve loved my whole life. They’re fine and they look wonderful.
To begin with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can have paella using 18 ingredients and 10 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Paella:
- Make ready 1/2 whole chicken. And/or extra chicken bones chopped in chunks
- Get |- you can just use chicken breast in bite size pieces
- Make ready 1/2 Por shoulder in bite size chunks with fat from top seperated
- Get Olive oil
- Get 3 Cloves diced garlic
- Get 2 onions diced
- Get 1/4 cup Peas (optional - whatever kind you can get easily)
- Prepare 1 handful (or 1/4 cup) Green beans cut in half or thirds
- Get 3 diced plum tomatoes
- Take 1 small handful (or 1/4 cup) chopped parsley
- Make ready Water
- Get 1 dessert spoon fresh lemon juice
- Get 1/2 teaspoon saffron or 1 dessert spoon Safflower
- Prepare 1 fire-roasted red bell pepper sliced
- Prepare 1 dessert spoon smoked paprika
- Get 1 bayleaf
- Make ready 1-2 lemon wedges
- Prepare 1 cup rice (roughly - the type won’t make a big difference)
Steps to make Paella:
- Add olive oil to a paella dish (or a wider than shallow pan) and get sausage.
- Add the onions and caramelise them. I like to add a tiny bit of water to prevent them from burning. If you don’t like caramelised onions, add them in the next step.
- Add the meats and fat (and extra bones if you have them) to the pan and let it cook for a few minutes. Then add garlic and remove the meat once they get a bit of colour in the outside (leave the bones in)
- Add the peas, beans and tomatoes. Cook for a further couple minutes before adding the paprika, saffron/Safflower, lemon juice and bay leaf. Mix together and cook for another minute
- Add water until it’s 3/4 way up the dish. Mix together.
- Let the water come to a boil and then turn the heat down, leaving it to simmer for 45 minutes. Check on it every now and again. Add more water if it’s looking low.
- Add the meats back in and simmer for a further 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes remove any extra bones and fat and the bayleaf.
- Turn the heat back onto full and add the red peppers, parsley and rice. Mix it all together
- Let it cook until the rice is fully done and almost all of the water is fully soaked up.(trying to avoid mixing or moving anything in the dish)
- Serve on the table still on the dish and add the lemon wedge/s, some additional chopped parsley and (only if you used Safflower) Safflower for garnish. Serve.
