Spanish Rice Minus the Prawns

Tonight's recipe share is from BBC Goodfood. The actual recipe is Spanish rice with chorizo & prawns. However, I don't like prawns so I decided to leave them out. For the full recipe, click here. For my version, with step by step photos, please keep on reading. 


1) Slice one onion and cut one red pepper into chunks. I used a red onion, and a variety of peppers to use up what I had in the fridge. 

2) Gently fry them in 2 tbsp olive oil until soft. 

3) Add the chopped up chorizo 

4) Cook until the oil starts to come out of the chorizo 

5) Add the paella rice and stir so it's all coated in the oil

6) Stir the saffron into the stock and pour into the pan

7) Cover and cook for 15 minutes until the rice has absorbed the liquid

8) Serve, and enjoy! We certainly did! 

This was so quick and easy to make, yet tasted really good. This will definitely become a regular meal in this house. We'll probably experiment with the ingredients too.
