Spanish Rice Dish Paella Recipe ‐ This simple Shrimp and Chorizo Paella is easy to make, has classic paella ingredients with all Spanish flavors. Feed and impress a crowd with this paella recipe!
I have been working on this Shrimp and Chorizo Paella recipe for a little while, and I felt like it was time to share. Ever since I studied in Spain, I have been wanting to make Paella. Even though the region I lived in wasn’t particularly known for their Paella, they still had an excellent variety to choose from for those who wanted to sample this classic Spanish dish.
Paella is a rice dish from Spain, originally from the Valencia region. Paella is named after the word “paelle” which means “pan”!
Spanish Cauliflower Rice (with Chorizo, Chicken & Shrimp)
For some reason I was very intimidated by Paella, and I never quite got around to making it until now. I wanted to figure out how to make paella from scratch, using all the traditional spices.
It took a few trial runs, but the last time I made this Shrimp and Chorizo Paella I was happy with the results. Saffron and smoked Paprika are definitely necessary.
It does help to get the right kind of rice and make sure to use the right amount of liquid. I was able to find some Spanish paella rice (redondo rice, or bomba rice) but it can be hard to find. The preferred kind of rice is a short grain white rice, so Arborio is the next best thing if you can’t find paella rice. Be sure you read the packaging and use the amount of liquid that is recommended.
Prawn And Chorizo Spanish Rice
Because Paella has been a very popular dish all throughout its history, it went through a lot of adoption and adaptation. There is no one true traditional Paella list of ingredients. But at a minimum you need the following:
I wanted to put shrimp and chorizo in my paella recipe because that seemed to be closest to the kind I ate in Spain even though the traditional Valencia Paella is never made with chorizo. Of course the seafood paella usually had mussels, clams, squid, shrimp and fish, but I wanted to keep it on the simple side so I just used shrimp. You can use any kind of meat or seafood that you would like, or even skip the meat altogether.
The hardest part was keeping the bottom from burning. This is partially because I have an electric stove (I would prefer gas) and partially because the pan I used was a bit thin. If you are using an electric stove, be sure to keep the heat on low and keep an eye on it to watch for burning, and also try to choose a pan with a thicker base for better heat distribution.

This Easy Paella recipe is made with Shrimp and Chorizo. It’s a great one-pot meal that is simple and full of flavor.
This is one of my very favorite recipes. It’s on regular rotation at my house. I’m a huge fan of paella, but like most people, I don’t always have time or budget to make traditional Paella that’s packed with expensive shellfish and takes hours to cook.
Chorizo And Seafood Paella
Paella is a flavorful rice dish originally from Valencia, Spain (although it’s also found in Portuguese cuisine). Traditionally, it takes about two hours to cook and consists of meat, sausage, seafood, and it’s flavored with spices and saffron.
If you love Paella, you’ll love this easy take on the classic dish. It has all flavors traditional Paella has by using shrimp, Spanish Chorizo, and Safron in the rice.
This one-pot dish is an easy weeknight supper that is going to knock your socks off! If you love Spanish inspired recipes, you’re going to love this dish!
Prawn And Chorizo Paella
For this dish, I use Spanish, Dried Chorizo which is a richly spiced, hard cured pork sausage (not to be confused with fresh, raw Mexican chorizo). It’s intensely flavored with spices like smoked paprika and garlic that comes in mild and hot varieties.
This recipe called for parboiled rice as it’s easiest to find. If you chose to use Arroz Redonda, keep in mind that cooking times and liquid ratios may need to be adjusted.
You can easily add Calamari rings, baby clams, scallops, or muscles to this dish. All cook quickly and they all bring different levels of flavor to the party!

*This recipe calls for parboiled or converted rice. In the US, look for Uncle Bens Converted Rice, or Golden Canilla Parboiled Rice. In the UK, buy Uncle Bens Long Grain Rice (not quick cook).
You can use other types of long-grain rice(although I don’t recommend instant, quick-cook, or brown rice). Just be sure to consult the package instructions for the rice to liquid ratios and cooking times and adjust accordingly.
