SHRIMP PAELLA WITH CHORIZO

Steps:

• Shrimp are normally an ingredient in paella and so is chorizo but I left the chicken and several other ingredients out to simplify it for you.
• In a large saute pan heat chorizo over medium heat until fat is rendered, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant. Add tomato, chicken broth, and saffron; bring to a simmer. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add rice and frozen peas; stir to combine. Cover and bring up to a simmer. Let cook for about 2 minutes. Season shrimp with salt and pepper and lay on top of rice mixture. Cover and continue to cook until shrimp are just done, about 4 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, if necessary, and serve.

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO RISOTTO

Steps:

• 1. Put saffron in small dish, pour a half cup chicken stock over it and set aside.
• 2. Heat one tablespoon oil in large skillet to very hot, add shrimp and stir. Sprinkle with paprika and stir-fry just until shrimp begin to brown but are not fully cooked, 2-4 minutes. Season with cayenne pepper and remove from heat.
• 3. Add butter and remaining oil and reheat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft, working up anything stuck to the skillet, 5-6 minutes. Add the chorizo, saute a couple of minutes more, then stir in cumin and rice. Saute, stirring, until the rice turns opaque, 5-6 minutes. Stir in the saffron mixture and wine. Cook, stirring with wooden spoon over medium heat, until most of the liquid has evaporated.
• 4. Add about 1/2 cup of the hot broth to the rice, stirring constantly until the broth is absorbed. Continue adding the remaining broth 1/2 cup at a time, waiting until each addition is absorbed before adding more. Continue until the rice is tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. The rice should have a creamy consistency. Add the reserved shrimp, parmesan, parsley and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve at once.

SPANISH STUFFED CHICKEN WITH SHRIMP AND CHORIZO

Steps:

• Chicken -- Remove the refrigerator and let it come somewhat to room temperature They are much easier to pound out when NOT ice cold. I prefer to put mine in a large plastic bag - press all the air out and seal - then pound away. I use a meat mallet, but a heavy pan, rolling pin or pretty much anything heavy will work. I pound as thin as possible without breaking the chicken up or making any holes in the breast. Salt and pepper well and then just set to the side as you make the filling.
• Chorizo -- In a large saute pan (I use a heavy oven proof pan that way everything is cooked in one pan) If you don't have one, use what you have on hand. Add 1/2 teaspoon olive oil and sauté the chorizo on medium heat until golden brown 4-5 minutes. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain any excess grease. Pour out the grease from the pan.
• Shrimp -- Add to the same pan, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon olive oil and put back on medium heat. Add the shrimp and onion and saute just a couple of minutes until the shrimp are just beginning to turn pink - It won't take long. NOTE: You can use any size shrimp, as long as you end up with 1 cup diced. As soon as they start to turn pink, remove from the heat and add the olives, parsley, bread crumbs, salt (go easy, the olives are salty) and pepper. Mix well and remove to a small bowl so the shrimp do not continue to cook. Add the chorizo to the shrimp mixture and stir well. Add a drizzle of olive oil if necessary to hold the dressing together.
• Sauce -- In the same pan, add the shallots and white wine to deglaze the pan and cook just a minute if that. Add the tomatoes, chicken broth and parsley. Remove from the heat.
• Stuffing -- Lay out the chicken breasts and top with the shrimp and chorizo filling. Roll up the chicken and secure with a toothpick. The filling will fill 4-5 breasts depending on the size. If there is any leftover, just freeze it for another time.
• Bake -- Heat the oven to 350, middle shelf. If using a oven proof saute pan, add the chicken seam side down right in the pan with the sauce. Use a spoon and spoon some of the sauce over the chicken. If using a casserole dish, add the chicken seam side down and pour the tomato sauce over the top.
• Cover with foil and bake for 30-40 minutes (the thickness of the chicken and the type of pan can affect cooking times). The last 10 minutes, uncover and top each chicken roll with cheese (I love manchego, but Monterey Jack will work just fine) and cook until bubbly and the cheese is melted.
• Serve -- I love polenta with this, white rice is also good. No need to flavor other than salt and pepper because of the tomato sauce. But I do like to garnish with some chopped scallions.

SHRIMP AND CHORIZO SAUSAGE PAELLA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add sausage and sauté until golden. It will seem like a lot of oil but it creates an almost cheese like taste when the paella is finished. Add garlic, rice, saffron, paprika and sauté 30 seconds - constantly stirring. Add 3 cups broth, diced tomatoes and a bay leaf - give it one stir and then let it boil and simmer for 10 minutes - no longer or your rice will be over done. Do not stir the rice just shake a little with the handle if you think it is sticking. Stir once and add shrimp, green beans and peppers to the top of paella and simmer another 7 minutes until liquid is evaporated. Cover if liquid evaporates too quickly or add reserved broth. Remove from heat and cover for 3 minutes. At this point you can transport your meal home. Shrimp should be fully pink before serving. Squeeze 1/2 lemon over paella, stir, remove bay leaf and taste. Add any seasoning if necessary - I usually add 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Serve immediately with a wedge of lemon on the side.
