Method

Preparation of Ingredients

  1. 1

    Prepare the Protein

    Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces, cube the beef brisket, and slice both the fresh and dry chorizo.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Dice the red and green bell peppers, chop the onion, and mince the garlic.

Cooking the Paella

  1. 3

    Sauté the Proteins

    In a large paella pan or wide skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken, beef brisket, fresh chorizo, and dry chorizo. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  2. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    In the same pan, add the chopped onion, garlic, and bell peppers. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

  3. 5

    Add Rice and Seasonings

    Stir in the bomba rice, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, allowing the rice to soak up the flavors.

  4. 6

    Add Broth and Saffron

    Pour in the chicken broth and add the saffron threads. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer.

  5. 7

    Combine and Cook

    Return the browned chicken and beef to the pan. Reduce heat to low and let simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.

  6. 8

    Let it Rest

    Remove from heat and let the paella rest for 5 minutes with a clean kitchen towel over it.

Serving

  1. 9

    Serve the Paella

    Fluff the paella with a fork and garnish with crispy onion rings and chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy!
