PREPARATION

  • 1

    In a small bowl, crush the saffron threads into the warm chicken bone broth and set aside to infuse.

  • 2

    Heat the olive oil in a wide, shallow skillet or paella pan over medium heat.

  • 3

    Add the diced chorizo and cook until the fat renders and the edges are slightly crisp.

  • 4

    Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the pan, sautéing until softened and fragrant.

  • 5

    Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper, cooking for 1 minute.

  • 6

    Add the Bomba rice to the pan, stirring for 2 minutes to toast the grains and coat them in the flavorful oils.

  • 7

    Pour in the saffron-infused broth. Stir once to distribute the rice evenly, then do not stir again to allow the socarrat (crust) to form.

  • 8

    Simmer for about 12-15 minutes until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is nearly tender.

  • 9

    Arrange the shrimp and frozen peas on top of the rice, pressing them down slightly.

  • 10

    Cover the pan and cook for another 5 minutes until the shrimp are pink and opaque.

  • 11

    Turn the heat up to medium-high for the last 60 seconds to finish the bottom crust, listening for a slight crackling sound.

  • 12

    Remove from heat, let rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and a lemon wedge before serving.
