Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large paella pan or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper, cooking until they are softened, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Aromatics

    Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, and saffron threads, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Cook the Rice

    Add the Arborio rice to the pan, stirring until the rice is well coated with the oil and vegetables. Pour in the chicken broth, and season with salt and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid or foil, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed most of the liquid.

  5. 5

    Add Lobster and Peas

    Gently fold the chopped lobster and frozen peas into the rice, cover again, and let it cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from heat, garnish with lemon wedges, and serve hot.
