Cooking Instructions
- 1
Level the paella pan. This is very important to ensure even cooking throughout the paella and to achieve a thin layer.
Important, don't be misled by paella pan sizes...for 10 people, the pan should be at least 28 inches in diameter.
With these 2 premises, success is guaranteed.

Season the chicken and rabbit with salt and fry slowly. Don't worry about the time, it takes about 30 minutes to fry it well. Frying it this way will make it very juicy, golden, and the meat will release all its juices.
As a tip, if you use a 3-burner ring, the 2 center ones are enough. If it has 2 rings, the first ring is sufficient.

Move the sautéed ingredients to the edge of the pan. Add all the well-washed vegetables, and the well-peeled artichokes. Sauté everything very well, slowly, for about 10 minutes. Once well sautéed, move to the edge of the pan.

Important Step!! In the center of the pan, over low heat, add 2 tablespoons of sweet paprika and quickly the crushed tomato. Stir for 1 minute.
- 5
Mix everything! The meat, the vegetables with our tomato sauté. Stir for 2 minutes and increase the heat.
- 6
Add 3 cups of water to the sauté, which will be simmering and smelling great!! Let it reduce for 4 minutes.

After those 4 minutes, add water until it covers the entire chicken thigh. It will take about 15 minutes to start boiling...check the salt, add a little saffron for color. And here's a tip!!!, when the water is halfway up the chicken thigh, add our kilo of rice.
- 8
Keep in mind, cooking time is 17 minutes. When you add the rice, it should be slightly visible on the surface. You need to keep track of the time. When you reach minute 8, you should start seeing bubbling and a bit of the rice...Success guaranteed.
- 9
After those 17 minutes, turn off the heat or let it rest!!! Important!!! I let it rest for up to 10 minutes.

Step 10!!! Eat after the wait. You can see more videos on my Instagram serchiete8121

Picture above is from class but I have made this a lot and if I can do this...so can you. Katatonickat -

Spanish Paella Spanish Paella
A paella pan is ideal when making this Spanish Valencia dish; consisting of chicken, sausage and available seafood ingredients. [In lieu of a paella pan, a very large pan can be used]This dish can be prepared outdoors (gas grill) or indoors using a large burner on the stove. Near the end of the cooking process you will need a lid to cover the pan - I use a metal pizza pan.*The ideal paella has a toasted rice bottom, called socarrat. The key ingredient is the saffron threads and other types of seafood can be substituted! Rick M -

Paella Paella
This food is very delicious!!! 👍 I have tried this food for the first time in Spain, because it is one of the famous Spanish dishes, and I think that it is a must for me to try to make it at home, but this is not an authentic Paella recipe, because:1. I didn't cook it in a Paella Pan, but in a non stick skillet, because I don't have Paella Pan.2. I didn't use safron and artichoke, because it's so rare and pricey here.So, This is just my version of it... 😊 Tra Cul -
