method

Let’s make something delicious

  • Step one

    Heat a glug of the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and soften for 5 minutes.

  • Step two

    Mix in the smoked paprika and thyme and stir to combine. Next add the rice and stir for a minute, to coat the grains throughly. Pour in the white wine and let it bubble to evaporate.

  • Step three

    Stir in the chopped tomatoes and pour in the chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper. Cook uncovered for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is almost tender and still has some liquid remaining.

  • Step four

    Next add the seafood, cover and simmer for 5 minutes, until the seafood is heated through and the rice soft. Gentle stir through the lemon juice and top with chopped parsley. Serve the dish at the table and get stuck in!
