-
1
In a paella pan or large, shallow skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
AI Wisdom: Vegetables should be softened but not browned. -
2
Add Arborio rice to the pan. Stir well to coat the rice with the vegetables and oil. Cook for 2 minutes to toast the rice slightly.
AI Wisdom: Toasting the rice helps to develop flavor. -
3
Stir in saffron with its soaking water, smoked paprika, and dried thyme. Pour in the warm broth. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
AI Wisdom: Simmer until rice is almost tender, about 15-20 minutes. -
4
Nestle chicken pieces into the rice mixture. Cook for 5 minutes, then add shrimp and peas. Continue cooking until the shrimp turns pink and opaque, about 5 minutes.
AI Wisdom: Ensure chicken is cooked through and shrimp is not overcooked. -
5
Remove from heat and let the paella rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
AI Wisdom: Resting allows flavors to meld and rice to finish cooking in its residual heat.
