Last night I made this recipe (I could have sworn that it was from this BB, but when I did a search nothing came up). It was amazingly easy. Dinner was on the table in about an hour. My husband loved it, as did I!!!!!
Paella
8 oz. Fresh shrimp
1 lb. Chicken breast pieces, boneless, skinless (I use breast tenderloins from costco)
Nonstick spray coating
1 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 14 ½ oz. can reduced sodium chicken broth
1 medium chopped red pepper
1 c. long grain rice
1 7 ½ oz. can tomatoes, undrained and cup up
1 tsp. fresh thyme
¼ tsp. ground saffron
¼ tsp. ground red pepper
1 c. frozen peas
Peel and devein shrimp. Rinse shrimp and chicken; pat dry with paper towels. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
Spray an unheated Dutch oven with nonstick coating. Preheat over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook until onion is tender.
Add chicken pieces, chicken broth, undrained tomatoes, thyme, saffron, and ground red pepper. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat. Simmer, covered for 15 minutes.
Stir in uncooked rice. Simmer covered, about 15 minutes more or until rice is tender.
Stir sweet pepper, shrimp, and peas into the rice mixture. Simmer, covered, about 5 minutes more.
6 servings (It was more like 4 for us).
