Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup frozen onions and bell peppers (6 oz)
1/4 lb kielbasa (not low-fat), quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (1 cup)
2 cups instant long-grain white rice such as Uncle Ben's
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 1/4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (10 fl oz)
1/8 teaspoon crumbled saffron threads
20 frozen cleaned raw medium shrimp such as Contessa brand
1 1/4 lb cockles or other very small (1-inch-wide) hard-shelled clams, scrubbed
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup small pimiento-stuffed green olives

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until just smoking, then sauté garlic and frozen onions and peppers, stirring, until garlic and onions are golden, about 2 minutes. Add kielbasa and cook, stirring, until kielbasa is lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add rice, wine, broth, saffron, and shrimp and cook, covered and undisturbed, over high heat until most of liquid is absorbed and shrimp are cooked through, about 6 minutes. Stir in cockles, peas, and olives and cook, covered, until cockles open wide, 2 to 4 minutes. (Discard any cockles that remain unopened after 4 minutes.) Remove from heat and let stand, covered, until all liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.

This paella was a waste of time and money. It was bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my paella didn't turn out as good as I hoped. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This paella was a little too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good.
