Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Dice the chicken and pork into bite-sized pieces. Slice the chorizo and dice all the peppers and jalapeño.

  2. 2

    Cook the Proteins

    In a large paella pan or skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and pork, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chorizo

    In the same pan, add the sliced chorizo and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly crispy. Remove and set aside with the chicken and pork.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Add the diced jalapeño, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.

  2. 5

    Add the Rice and Spices

    Stir in the saffron rice, chipotle powder, and paprika. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to coat the rice with oil and spices.

  3. 6

    Add the Broth

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer.

  4. 7

    Combine Everything

    Return the cooked chicken, pork, and chorizo back to the pan. Stir to combine, then let simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed most of the liquid.

  5. 8

    Final Seasoning and Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and black pepper if needed. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
