Basic recipe Paella

Preparation: Place the paella pan (e.g. Blackwell Sheet Steel Paella Pan ø 34 cm) on medium heat and heat the olive oil.

Rice: Stir in the paella rice until the grains are translucent in the sauce.
Broth & herbs: Pour in the warm broth and add the saffron and paprika. Season to taste and return the chicken and chorizo to the pan.
Cooking: Let the rice simmer gently for 18–20 minutes without stirring until a crispy crust (socarrat) is formed.
Seafood: Add the shrimp and mussels after 10 minutes. Cover loosely and cook until the mussels are open and the shrimp are pink.
Finishing: Remove the pan from the heat, cover with a tea towel, and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Serving: Serve with lemon wedges and eat straight from the pan.
