the Allen Family One Skillet Paella

I was asked about my cooking the other day. I’m not big on recipes, but this is how we make Paella.

First, you need a large, deep skillet. Then add lots of meat, olive oil, and garlic. We’ve settled on smoked sausage and chicken breast.

Then add a bunch of veggies. Peppers, onions, green onions. You can add mushrooms, chickpeas, green beans. I wouldn’t recommend corn.

add a couple cans of diced tomatoes. If you want a little heat, use one can of diced tomatoes and a can of Rotel.

Keep draining it. And when it looks good to you, add Paella seasoning (available anywhere) extra Saffron, some Italian seasoning, salt/pepper. Add a carton of Chicken Broth or Stock and a cup of Arborio rice

Bring it to a rapid boil, then simmer until the rice has absorbed the broth.

Keep stirring to avoid any sticking and when the stock is absorbed…..

Good Stuff.
