Here's one of my favorite ways to make paella.

It's not the traditional Valencian version, but it's really delicious. Another day I'll share the classic Valencian paella, which I also make really well.

Today I'm giving you this idea for a simple, lovingly made paella.

Steps

60 minutes
  1. 1

    Chop the peppers and onion. Peel and chop the garlic, and do the same with the green beans.

  2. 2

    In a paella pan, heat a little olive oil. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, and brown them. Remove the chicken and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same oil, sauté the peppers, onion, and green beans.

  4. 4

    Add the chicken and garlic back to the pan, and continue browning everything together.

  5. 5

    Now add all the rice with a little paprika. Stir, then add the crushed tomatoes. Cook for a few minutes until the rice takes on some color.

  6. 6

    Add the water (5 1/4 cups). Spread the rice evenly in the pan so it cooks well. Increase the heat to bring it to a boil, then reduce to medium once boiling.

  7. 7

    Add salt and rosemary. Without stirring the rice, let it cook for about 15-20 minutes. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning on the bottom—some crispy rice is great, but burnt rice will ruin the paella.

  8. 8

    Once the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked, turn off the heat and let the paella rest, covered with a towel or loosely with aluminum foil, for about 5 minutes.

  9. 9

    Serve 4 portions—there might be a little extra for seconds!

    Tip: Serve with a slice of toasted bread with tomato and aioli. Enjoy with a good sangria, and if you like, squeeze a little lemon over your plate. Delicious!
