Tasting Table
"Unlike its Italian cousin, risotto, paella is traditionally cooked over an open fire. The rice is boiled vigorously until the top gets fluffy and the rice at the bottom of the pan has transformed into the socarrat, the prized burnt rice crust.
We made a mixed paella studded with shrimp, chicken, chorizo and piquillo peppers, cooking the chicken and shrimp on the grill so they got nice and smoky. The entire dish is laced with chicken broth and sofrito, a classic Spanish sauce of onions, tomato and garlic that have been cooked down in olive oil."
For the Allioli:
1 large egg yolk
¾ cup extra-virgin olive oil, preferably a light, fruity variety
1 garlic clove, pounded into a paste
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Salt, to taste
For the Paella:
6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt, to taste
6 whole jumbo shrimp (with heads and tails)
6 ounces dry-cured Spanish chorizo, sliced into ¼-inch rounds
1 medium Spanish onion, finely diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 medium tomatoes, grated using a box grater
2 dried ñora chile peppers, stemmed, seeded and soaked in 1 cup boiling water
2 teaspoons hot smoked paprika (pimentón picante)
1 large pinch Spanish saffron threads, crumbled
2 cups paella rice, preferably Bomba or Valencia
Salt, to taste
6 cups low-sodium chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 pound mussels, scrubbed and debearded
½ pound littleneck clams, scrubbed
3 roasted piquillo peppers, torn into ½-inch-wide strips
For serving:
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 lemons cut into wedges (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Allioli: Whisk egg yolk. Drizzle in the oil, drop by drop, whisking constantly, til mixture is emulsified and thick. Whisk in the garlic paste & lemon juice. Season with salt & set aside. The allioli can be made a day ahead. Cover & chill then bring to room temp before serving. 2. Paella: Prepare a med-hot charcoal grill. While grill is heating, season the chicken with salt allow it to come to room temp. Brush grill grates with ¼ c of the xvoo. Place the chicken skin-side-down on the grill and close lid. Grill the chix til golden brown and almost cooked through, about 12 to 15 min. While the chicken is cooking, season shrimp with salt and place on grill for about a min on each side. Transfer chicken & shrimp to a sheet pan. 3. Place a 15" paella pan on the grill. Once the pan is hot, add chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, til the chorizo starts to brown and the fat has rendered, about 10 min. Remove the chorizo to a bowl. 4. Add the onions to the pan and cook, stirring often until soft, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. If the pan seems dry, add the remaining olive oil. Add the tomatoes and ñora chile, & its soaking liquid. Cook til the liquid has reduced and the vegetables have softened and melded together, about 12 min. Add chorizo back to the pan with the paprika & saffron. Cook til fragrant, about a min. 5. Add the rice and season with salt. Cook for 1 min with the sofrito and chorizo. Add stock, stir to and bring to a rapid boil. 6. Bury the chicken thighs skin-side-up in the rice and cook. Do not stir from this point on, until the rice is tender but still al dente and the chicken is cooked, about 20 to 25 min. Nestle the mussels, clams & shrimp in the rice. Cover and cook until the mussels and clams have opened up and the shrimp are cooked, about 5 minutes. Top with the roasted piquillo peppers and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving. 7. Sprinkle parsley over the paella and serve with allioli & lemon wedges.

Barcelona is my favourite place I've been (so far) and I lived on paella. This recipe from chow.com is the closest I've found to my favourite one. If you can't find paella rice, I've used arborio.

Time 1h45m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 medium ripe tomatoes (about 12 ounces)
16 large shrimp, peeled and deveined (about 12 ounces)
1 teaspoon smoked spanish paprika
fresh ground black pepper
1 lb chicken thigh, cut into 1-inch pieces (boneless, skinless)
8 ounces spanish chorizo, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil, as needed
1 medium yellow onion, small dice
2 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 large pinch saffron thread
2 cups paella rice (about 1 pound, sometimes labeled bomba or Valencia)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning the shrimp and chicken
4 cups low sodium chicken broth
16 mussels (or Manila clams, or a combination)
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 medium lemons, cut into 8 wedges each, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400°F and arrange a rack in the middle.
  • Core and halve the tomatoes. Grate the flesh side of each half on the large holes of a box grater set over a medium bowl, stopping when you get to the skin. Discard the skins. You should have about 3/4 cup of tomato pulp and juice; set aside.
  • Place the shrimp in a medium bowl, add 1/4 teaspoon of the paprika, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine and refrigerate. Place the chicken in a medium bowl and season generously with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Place a 15-inch paella pan across two burners and heat over medium-high heat until hot, about 2 minutes. Add the chorizo to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until it has started to brown and the fat has rendered, about 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a large bowl; set aside.
  • There should be a thin layer of rendered fat in the pan. If there's not enough, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the seasoned chicken to the pan in a single layer and sear, stirring occasionally, until both sides are golden brown, about 6 minutes total. (You will need to rotate the pan occasionally over the burners to evenly distribute the heat.) Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken to the bowl with the chorizo; set aside.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, remaining 3/4 teaspoon paprika, and saffron, stir to combine, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the reserved tomato pulp and juice and cook until the mixture has slightly darkened in color, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and measured salt and stir to coat in the tomato mixture.
  • Increase the heat to medium high. Add the broth and stir to combine. Arrange the rice mixture in an even layer. Distribute the reserved chorizo and chicken over the rice, adding any accumulated juices from the bowl. (Do not stir the rice from this point on.).
  • Bring to a lively simmer and continue to simmer, adjusting the heat as necessary and rotating the pan 90 degrees every few minutes, until the rice grains have swelled, most of the liquid has been absorbed, and the rice starts to make a crackling sound, about 12 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Arrange the reserved shrimp and the shellfish (hinge-side down) in the rice, nestling them slightly. Place the pan in the oven and bake until the shellfish have opened, the shrimp are just cooked through, and the rice is tender but still al dente, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and place on a wire rack. Cover with foil and let stand for 5 minutes. Before serving the paella, discard any unopened shellfish and sprinkle the dish with the parsley. Serve with the lemon wedges.
