CHICKEN & SEAFOOD PAELLA - AUSTRALIAN WOMEN'S WEEKLY
From the excellent Australian Women's Weekly cookbook series. I've tried a number of different paella recipes but keeping coming back to this one, so thought I'd better post it. If some of the seafood is unavailable you can substitute others like clams or scallops - as long as there's about a kilogram. Remember, the rice is meant to form a crunchy,burnt crust on the bottom (its a delicacy and called "socarrat") so when stirring, try not to disturb it.
