Cooking Instructions
- 1
First, prepare the main ingredients so that cooking is straightforward. Cut the chicken and rabbit into pieces if not already done - you can ask the butcher to do this and save yourself the step at home :) - Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Next, slice the bell pepper into rings about half a centimeter thick. Now we have the 'prep' ready (that's what we called it in the kitchen back in my days as a kitchen assistant, and I don't say it any other way haha). - 2
Now pour a good amount of oil into the paella pan. Heat the oil over medium-high heat and add only the chicken and rabbit meat. Season the meat with salt and pepper and cook until it is golden brown.

Set the meat aside and make a space in the center of the paella pan to cook the sliced bell pepper. I also add the rabbit liver here because it gives a good flavor, but it's optional. When the liver is done, I set it aside (and give it to my dog because he loves it!). Continue cooking the bell pepper until it is soft, then add the fried tomato sauce, stir, and cook until the water evaporates.

Mix everything together and cook for about 5 minutes; it will take on a beautiful golden color as you can see in the photo.
- 5
Now add the broth and cook everything together over high heat until it starts to boil. Without lowering the heat, add the saffron and cook everything together for 15 minutes to blend all the flavors.

Let's move on to the rice! I think it's the most important part. A while ago, I learned from 'Arantxa Brujilla' that the trick is to add it crosswise from side to side of the paella pan, and the rice should stick out a bit - you can see this in the first photo. This way, we always add just the right amount of rice needed for the amount of broth in the paella (and in my case, it's usually the amount I've listed above!). Spread the rice evenly across the paella pan.
- 7
Now, without stirring the rice at all, cook our paella over high heat for 9 minutes, then place the rosemary sprigs in the center and lower the heat to medium, cooking for another 7 minutes.
Remove the paella from the heat and cover it for 5 minutes with a piece of cardboard, cloth, or paper towel... After that, it will be ready to serve! :)

Rabbit Paella Rabbit Paella
Today, Sunday, my son is enjoying his day off. We don't usually eat together, but today we had the chance, so I decided to make something we both love: rice! A special dish with rabbit, which we haven't had in a long time. I didn't think twice about it, and we even had leftovers for the dog. I think she'll have a feast tonight. It's not a very romantic Valentine's Day recipe, but it's made with love. By the way, it was delicious! josevillaltaTranslated from Cookpad Spain -

Valencian Paella with Chicken and Rabbit Valencian Paella with Chicken and Rabbit
This is my version of the traditional Valencian paella for 4 people. In Valencia, there are many debates about how this rice dish should or shouldn't be made, and I really couldn't say who's right or wrong, but I've eaten paella in many traditional restaurants, and my recipe is based on those. If you can cook it over a wood fire instead of at home in the kitchen, even better. Mónica RoyoTranslated from Cookpad Spain -

Valencian Paella with Snails and Rosemary Valencian Paella with Snails and Rosemary
Sunday was a very special day, and I wanted to celebrate it with the most typical dish from Valencia. I don't know why making paella intimidates me so much, since the few times I've made it, it turns out delicious to my taste. When guests come over, I immediately look for someone else to make it because I don't dare. Hopefully, I'll lose that 'fear' and gain more confidence by practicing for my husband and myself. I wanted to buy fresh rosemary, but I forgot and had to use ground rosemary to make an infusion. It still turned out with a delicious flavor; although I would have been thrilled if the snails had been from the countryside and not store-bought. EncarTranslated from Cookpad Spain -
