Instructions

Get Prepped
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a full kettle.

Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces. Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 

Fry the Flavours
2

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, wide-bottomed ovenproof pan on medium heat. TIP: If you don't have an ovenproof pan, use a normal pan and transfer to an ovenproof dish before baking.

Once hot, add the chorizo and fry until it starts to brown, 3-4 mins.

Add the onion and fry until softened, 4-5 mins, then add the pepper and fry for 3-4 mins more. Stir frequently and adjust the heat if necessary.

Once the veg has softened, add half the garlic and smoked paprika and cook for 1 min more.

Bake your Paella
3

Add the risotto rice to the pan. Stir and cook until the edges of the rice are translucent, 1-2 mins.

Pour in the boiled water for the stock (see pantry for amount) and add the chicken stock paste. Stir well to combine and bring back to the boil, then pop a lid on the pan (or cover with foil).

Bake on the middle shelf of your oven until the rice is cooked and the water has been absorbed, 25-30 mins. 

Meanwhile, place the garlic baguettes on a medium baking tray. When the risotto has 15 mins remaining, bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden and piping hot, 12-15 mins.

Dress the Salad
4

Meanwhile, roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all). Zest and halve the lemon. Cut half the lemon into wedges. Halve the baby plum tomatoes.

Pour the olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount) into a medium bowl. Add a squeeze of lemon and season with salt and pepper. Stir together well. 

Just before serving, add the rocket and tomatoes to the bowl and toss to coat in the dressing. TIP: Don't do this too early or the rocket will become soggy.

Cook the Prawns
5

When the paella has about 5 mins left, drain the prawns and pat dry with kitchen paper.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the prawns. Season with salt and pepper and stir-fry for 3-4 mins.

Add the remaining garlic and half the lemon zest to the pan, then cook for 1 min more.

Once cooked, remove from the heat and cover to keep warm. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. They're cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.

Finish and Serve
6

When everything's ready, remove the paella from the oven. Squeeze in some lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Stir through half the parsley, then taste and add more salt, pepper and lemon juice if needed. TIP: Add a splash of water to loosen the paella if needed.

Spoon the paella onto your plates and top with the prawns, then sprinkle over the remaining parsley and lemon zest.

Serve with a lemon wedge, the garlic baguettes and the rocket and tomato salad alongside.
