$-1 / $2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined

$-1 red bell pepper, sliced

-1 cup bomba or arborio rice

-1 small onion, diced

$-1 red bell pepper, sliced

$-1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes or 2 fresh tomatoes, chopped

-2 garlic cloves, minced

$-1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes or 2 fresh tomatoes, chopped

-3 cups chicken broth (warm)

-1/2 tsp smoked paprika

$-1 pinch saffron or 1 tsp turmeric (color alternative)

-Lemon wedges (for serving)

-Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a wide pan. Season chicken with salt & pepper and brown on all sides — remove and set aside.

In the same pan, sauté onion, pepper, and garlic until softened.

Stir in rice, tomatoes, SMOKED paprika, and saffron. Coat rice in the mixture.

Pour warm broth over the rice. Do not stir again once broth is added.

Add chicken back to the pan. Simmer uncovered 15–20 minutes on medium-low heat.

Add shrimp and peas on top. Continue cooking 5–10 minutes until shrimp turn pink and rice is tender.

Optional: Increase heat for 1–2 minutes to form the crispy pegao at the bottom.

Remove from heat, cover with a towel, and rest 5 minutes.

Squeeze fresh lemon before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

For seafood paella: swap chicken for mussels + clams

For vegetarian: use veggie broth, add artichokes + zucchini

The magic is in not stirring — it keeps paella traditional. ✅
