Spanish Shrimp Paella is a simple dish that you can easily make at home for a dinner or a party. This is also a great recipe for a quick meal if you need to whip something up after work because you can make it in about 30 minutes. A pound of frozen shrimp and some ingredients you can easily have on hand make this dish a snap.
Instead of just writing about how to make this delicious dish, I thought you might like to watch me make it. Here is the video. The recipe is below the video.
Serves 6 generous portions
Ingredients:
1 pound of Extra Large frozen raw shrimp, thawed, peeled and deveined
1 1/2 cups of long grain rice
5 tablespoons of olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2-3 cloves of garlic, chopped
3 cups of chicken broth
1 (14 oz) can of diced tomatoes
1 (7 oz) can of whole Pimientos, drained and sliced
1 cup of fresh chopped Italian parsley
A few threads of saffron
Salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
1 cup of frozen peas
Put shrimp in a bowl and season well with salt, pepper and 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Set aside to marinate while you get the rice cooking.
Add 3 tablespoons of olive oil, the onions and garlic to a large frying or paella pan over high heat. Season well with salt and pepper and sauté for a few minutes. Add the tomatoes, rice, saffron and chicken stock, stir well, cover and turn down heat to a medium simmer, cooking for about 15 minutes. Uncover and give everything a good stir. Then top with the frozen peas, shrimp, sliced pimientos and parsley, cover and cook for another 12-15 minutes until shrimp are opaque and most of the liquid is evaporated.
Remove from stove and allow the paella to sit uncovered for 5-10 minutes before serving.
