This is the paella (or chicken rice) that my father used to make, which is why it's called Gancedo, our family name. It’s full of flavor. What I do is buy a whole chicken and cut up all the meat to use in the paella; we use the leftover bones to make the broth.

Steps

1 hour 30 minutes
  1. 1

    Cut all the usable chicken meat and the 2 chorizo sausages into pieces and set aside for later.

  2. 2

    To prepare the broth, add the chicken carcass, pumpkin, leek, and whole carrot to a pot and cover with water. Boil over high heat until the meat easily separates from the bones (about 40 minutes). Strain and reserve 5 cups (about 1200 ml) of the broth for the paella. You can freeze the remaining broth for another dish or to make soup.

  3. 3

    PAELLA: Add the saffron to the reserved broth. Chop the onion, green peppers, and tomato. Sauté them in a little oil, and when softened, add the tomato. Cook for another 5-8 minutes. Add the chicken and chorizo to the vegetables and cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until browned (almost the highest heat setting).

  4. 4

    Once the meat is cooked, add the wine and reduce the heat to medium-high for 15 seconds, then lower to low. Let it cook for 1 hour so the flavors blend and the wine reduces. Then add the rice, stir, and pour in the broth along with 4 teaspoons of salt. Stir the bottom well, and when it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 21 minutes. For a crispy bottom (socarrat), cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat, cover with a towel, and let rest for 5 minutes.

Recetas sencillas para gente como yo que no es muy habilidosa en la cocina o que no sabe cocinar. Si eres nuev@ en la cocina, eres de los mios. Las recetas que hago son aprendidas de otras y cojo lo que mas me gusta de ellas y las mezclo a veces. El objetivo de lo que comparto es animar l@s perezos@s (yo lo fui y ahora me encanta) a meterse a cocinar. Es mas facil y gratificante de lo que parece, ademas si vives sol@ o en pareja, tanto tu como el/ella lo agradecereis.Cualquier duda me preguntais, no soy un experto cocinero, lo mío es más seguir recetas (cada vez que cocino un plato tengo que mirar mis propias recetas porque me olvido 🤣) para abrir el abanico de comidas que hacemos en casa.
