If ever there were a dish more closely associated with a country than paella is with Spain, we're having a hard time thinking about what it is right now. Maybe it's the gorgeous images chef and recipe developer Catherine Brookes of Blue Sky Eating captured while creating her take on this Spanish classic that's contributing to the brain fog, not to mention the rumbling in the stomach they tend to cause.
Originally a Valencian dish, paella is indeed now treated by many as the national dish of Spain, but given the globalized world we live in, you won't have to visit the Iberian Peninsula to get your hands on the ingredients needed for this succulent seafood-centric treat. Rather, everything you need should be down the street at your local grocery store. (Well, the saffron may be a bit hard to find. And the squid, but we'll talk about that later.) Also, you don't have to be a master chef in order to make this Mediterranean meal. Brookes says, There are quite a few steps to the recipe, but it's actually all quite simple and definitely worth the wait.
So grab a glass of wine or a cup of tea, gather your ingredients, and let's get this dish cooking. It's a slow and steady simmer to perfection.
Paella, The Most Supreme Of Local Dishes
Here's the thing: Unless you can pull all the ingredients from the sea yourself and can harvest saffron at that, paella isn't the cheapest dish to make. But your taste buds are worth the investment. All told, you'll need fish stock, saffron (Just a pinch, though!), diced chorizo, raw squid rings, diced onion, diced red pepper, crushed cloves of garlic, smoked paprika, a 14-ounce can of chopped tomatoes, some white wine, paella rice, raw large shell-on prawns, and debearded mussels. (They probably came from the store that way, but double check.)
If you can't get your hands on any squid, Brookes says, [You may be able to substitute with] chicken or cod. Or you could just add more prawns and mussels.
To start things off, heat the fish stock in a pan on the stove over high heat, warming the liquid until it begins to boil. (You can also heat it in the microwave for about two minutes.) Then, cut the heat, add the saffron to the stock, stir it well, and it set aside.

Next, in a lightly greased 12-inch paella pan (or the closest pan you have to such), fry the diced chorizo on a medium heat until the meat is crisp and browned. Remove the chorizo from the pan into a bowl, and set it aside, then add the squid rings to the same pan. Fry those for one minute on each side, then remove them from the pan to another bowl, and set the squid aside.
Add the diced onion and pepper to the same pan used for the sausage and squid, and fry them until they softened, stirring frequently. (This will take about six to eight minutes.) Then, add the garlic and paprika, and cook for another minute, stirring constantly.
Next, add the canned tomatoes with their liquid, the white wine, and some salt and pepper to taste. Stir, and let the mixture cook for 10 minutes.

Next, add the paella rice, and stir everything together. Then, add the chorizo and fish stock, and stir briefly. Bring the dish to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, and do not stir the paella again after this point. This will allow a crispy crust of rice to form on the bottom layer of the pan, as is traditional with Spanish paella, Brookes says. Leave the dish to cook for 15 minutes at that simmer point.
After the 15 minutes of simmering have passed, nestle the prawns, squid rings, and mussels into the rice, and let the paella cook for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the prawns are completely cooked through, noting that you may need to turn the prawns half way through cooking. When ready, the prawns should be pink all over, and the mussel shells should be open. (Discard any mussels that don't open.)
Remove the pan from the heat, cover it with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. Then, serve the dish with fresh lemon wedges and fresh parsley, which are optional but advised! You will now be looking at a colorful masterpiece — one that your family or guests will be quite impressed with. So, sit back, and enjoy this delicious dish!

Got some leftover? Brookes says, You could keep any leftovers in the fridge and eat them within 24 hours. To reheat, spread the paella out on a baking sheet, sprinkle over three tablespoons of water, and cover it with foil. Then heat it in the oven until it's piping hot [for] about 20 minutes.

Country Chicken Restaurant may sound like an American eatery but their seafood paella is simply divine. Topped with prawns, clams, peas, and green beans, the turmeric rice is very flavorful.

Heat broth in a large pot. Stir in saffron. Pat fish and shrimp dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and let sit 10 minutes. Use a mortar and pestle to mash parsley, garlic, thyme and 1/8 tsp salt into a paste; stir in paprika. Add water if necessary to form a paste.

Heat 6 tbsp of oil in 15″ paella pan over medium high heat and quickly brown the fish 1-2 minutes. Do not fully cook. Remove to warm platter. Add remaining 2 tbsp of oil, onion, scallions and bell pepper to paella pan and cook until the vegetables are slightly softened. Raise heat, add tomato and cook until it becomes sauce-like, 2 to 5 minutes. Pour in the hot broth and bring to a boil. Sprinkle the rice evenly across the pan. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring rice and rotating pan occasionally. Add all reserved fish (but not shrimp). Stir in parsley paste. Taste for salt. Do not stir after this point. Lower the heat, continue to simmer until rice is no longer soupy but enough liquid remains to continue cooking the rice (about 10 min.). Add extra liquid if necessary.
Arrange shrimp, clams and mussels over rice, placing edges of mussel and clam shells so they open facing up. Cook, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes until rice is almost done.

Garnish with lemon wedges and serve with fresh alioli.With its origins in the Andalusian peninsula, paella is the epitome of Spanish comfort food. This traditional dish can be crafted with a variety of meats and vegetables; however, every traditional paella recipe will include extra virgin olive oil, short grain Valencia rice and saffron. The key to creating perfect paella is a good socarrat which is the crispy, caramelized rice at the bottom of the pan that is loaded with flavor and texture. After you master this base recipe, you'll be ready to branch out and try different ingredients - we recommend using seasonal vegetables, and local meat.
2. Brown the chicken thighs skin side down. As the skin begins to turn a golden brown color, turn the thighs and add the Spanish chorizo. After browning, remove meat to a separate bowl.

3. Without removing olive oil and the accumulated chicken fat, add the bell pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally and add green beans. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes before adding onions. After the onions begin to become translucent, stir in garlic followed by tomatoes. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes before adding the chicken and chorizo back into the pan along with any accumulated juices. Stir in smoked paprika and paella rice making sure to evenly spread rice throughout the dish. Pour chicken stock into the skillet without stirring and spread crushed saffron over the stock.
4. With the pan still on high heat, cook the paella for 20 minutes. Decrease the temperature to medium low for an additional 15 minutes. Never stir the Paella after the rice has begun to boil. At this point, the liquid should have receded below the rice. Add the shrimp and mussels (optional) to the dish being sure to gently sink the seafood down into the paella. Add the fresh parsley leaves and rosemary sprigs and cover lightly with a piece of foil and decrease heat to low for an additional 5 minutes.
5. Remove the foil and check to be sure that the seafood has finished cooking and that the rice has a dark hue against the wall of the skillet. There should be very little liquid still bubbling, the mussels should have opened up and the shrimp should have a nice pink hue. Allow the paella to rest for an
