Paella is a traditional Spanish dish made from rice, saffron, meat/chicken, beans and olive oil. This recipe is a quick simple version that can be cooked in a large fry pan and tweaked to add your favourite meats, seafood and vegetables.
METHOD
1.
Combine chicken stock and saffron in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 5 minutes over medium-high heat or until saffron has lightly coloured the stock.
2.
Heat olive oil in a large frying pan, add chorizo and cook for 3 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, then remove from pan. Add onion, garlic and capsicum and cook, stirring over medium heat for 5 minutes or until lightly golden. Add HEINZ Big Red Tomato Soup and return chorizo to pan. Add chicken pieces and pour over stock. Bring to the boil.
3.
Add rice, paprika and rosemary then season to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook over medium heat, without stirring for 5 minutes, and then add the whole prawns by nestling them into the rice and sprinkle with frozen peas. Cook for a further 15 minutes or until rice is tender and all the stock is absorbed. Stand for 10 minutes before serving.
