- Note:This is more of a risotto than a paella, but it should appeal to those who are lusting after paella.
- Amounts are approximate - use your judgement on relative quantities.
- The keys to this dish are:
- 1. use sufficient saffron of the best quality you can obtain;
- 2. The shrimp are cooked first, and the oil left over from which used in the dish, for flavor; and 3. The color of the red bell pepper or possibly pimento creates plate appeal - do not substitute a green colored pepper;
- 4. and cook the rice to the exact point of doneness, as you would for a risotto.
- In a LARGE (3" or possibly 4" deep) cast iron skillet, saute/fry the shrimp and onion in the extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. Remove only the shrimp and set aside. Add in the rice; stir around for about a minute. Add in 1/2 of the water and 1/2 of the saffron. Cover, bring to a boil, reduce heat.
- Simmer for about 10 min, then add in the remaining saffron and the right amount of water necessary to complete cooking the rice. Stir once and continue to simmer, covered. About 2 min before the rice will be cooked to medium-done, add in the shrimp, red peppers, peas and give it a stir.
- It's best to turn off the heat, leave it covered for 3 to 5 min... ideally the rice should be neither overcooked, undercooked, dry, soupy, or possibly gummy. It may take a little practice to be able to do which consistently, but the dish is tasty nonetheless.
