Paella is a dish that layers flavors. As it cooks the flavors develop and it's very complex. One of the key ingredients is saffron. It's an expensive spice but totally worth the cost.
Saffron is expensive because it's labor-intensive. It's made from the tiny, stigmas threads in the center of the crocus flower. Each crocus only has three stems - that's why it's so expensive!

Is there a substitute for saffron? Flavor-wise, no not really. The flavor is unique, but a pinch of turmeric will help mimic the color. Adding paprika and chili powder will give you good layers of flavor. Frankly if you're making this, buy the saffron!
Round medium grain rice works well. It will absorb liquid quickly and is the traditional choice when making this dish. Spanish rice is great if you can find it. Jasmine rice is readily available and what I usually use. Do not use Arborio, the water/rice ratio will be off.
Paella is the national dish of Spain. It uses a variety of meats; chicken, pork, rabbit, duck and/or seafood. It has bold flavors and can be customized for your meal and tastes.

Easy Seafood Paella Recipe
When I lived in the midwest it was all about dinner parties and gatherings. The neighborhood I lived was fabulous! There was always a friend stopping by and plans being made and entertaining was a THING!
One time I brought it out to the table and served it in the pan I made it in. My friend Jay (afterward) said Deb I was pretty sure there wasn't enough in that pan to feed the crowd, but it was like a neverending pot of food!

Different versions of paella out there: seafood, chicken, combo, vegetarian, etc. Everyone has their own version and/or opinion about what makes a real paella. This one is mine. And it uses
You can use white or brown rice but I like to use brown. After I uncased my chorizo (I used beef chorizo by the way), I tried to cut it into rounds but that didn’t really work so I just kind of rolled them in to balls with my hands.The seafood goes in at the end but they seafood in general cooks quickly in the slow cooker. Mine always seems to cook in under 10 minutes but standard for seafood is 15-30.

This recipe is a bit finicky. Please note, if you overcook it, the rice will quickly turn to mush. It will all depend on how your slow cooker heats so it might take you a time or two making this to get it just right.
If you don’t like or can’t eat seafood then leave it out, no modifications to the recipe. I suggest using at least the shrimp if you can. It adds a certain

Hi how are you? The recipe sound good and look delicious. My concern is that it might be a bitt sticky or to wet. I like dry rice each grain to fall to itself.
I made this the other day for a work function and WOW! I was so pleased with the way it turned out. It was so flavorful. I did omit the chorizo and it was still packed with flavor. It was a HUGE hit! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.Here’s an easy Slow Cooker Paella recipe. Slow cooking really helps to develop the deep and delicious flavors in this popular Spanish dish.
Chicken And Seafood Paella With Chorizo
When I’m having one of those days where I don’t want to think about dinner too much, I reach for my slow cooker. There are too many times when dinner time rolls around, and I’m just tired and don’t feel like making dinner. Does anyone else feel this way? Slow cooking to the rescue! Sometimes it takes a bit of prep time to get the slow cooker meal rolling, but at the end of the day you are glad you did it!
This Slow Cooker Paella isn’t a “dump and go” kind of slow cooker recipe like my taco soup or chicken santa fe. There’s a little stovetop cooking involved, but then everything will cook together for a longer period in the slow cooker. It’s worth the extra work since traditional paella has a much lengthier cooking process.
This Slow Cooker Paella recipe comes from The Everything Green Mediterranean Cookbook by Peter Minaki. Peter is one of the first people I met on the internet back in my early days of blogging (Peter has a Greek food blog: Kalofagas). Having also written The Everything Healthy Mediterranean Cookbook, Peter is an expert in Mediterranean cooking.
Paella I Recipe
The Mediterranean diet focuses on eating fresh veggies and fruits, whole grains, olive oil, seafood, lean meats and nuts. It’s a diet that is recommended by many doctors as a healthy way to reduce inflammation, avoid chronic disease, lower cholesterol and lose weight. In this book, Peter shows you how to make the Mediterranean diet more green by removing most meat and animal products. I chose a recipe to make that actually has shrimp and chicken in it, but most of the recipes in the book are vegetable based.
In a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, heat the oil until hot but not smoking. Add the sausage and onion and cook until the sausage is browned and the onion is softened. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage and onion to the slow cooker and stir well. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chicken to the same skillet. Cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
Place the chicken on top of the rice mixture. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours. Now you get to relax for a while!
Spanish Paella Recipe (seafood, Chicken, & Chorizo)
When 6 hours have passed, add the peas to the slow cooker; stir. Top with the shrimp, cover and cook an additional 30 minutes, until the shrimp and peas are cooked through. Now the slow cooker paella is ready to serve!
Resist the temptation to put the shrimp in at the beginning of the recipe. Shrimp can go from tender to rubbery very quickly. So be sure to add it in at the end to only slow cook for 30 minutes, and your shrimp will cook perfectly!
If you’ve never had paella before, then you’re in for a treat. And if you’ve had traditional paella in a restaurant, then you will be so pleased that you can now
