Chicken Paella Recipe

26 Jul

Chicken Paella is a Spanish dish that is full or flavor, and made easy by using a rotisserie chicken.

Chicken Paella is one of those great all-in-one dishes.  The traditional version of this Spanish dish can take awhile to make, but The Hungry Wife Chicken Paella recipe cuts down on time by using a store bought rotisserie chicken.  I love finding recipes that use a rotisserie chicken, they are perfect for weeknight meals, or when you are cooking for a crowd.  If you wish, you may add in shrimp and/or mussels toward the end of cooking for a true Spanish flare.

If you have children, even picky eaters, chicken paella is a great way to sneak in veggies and introduce some spices.  The ingredients are pretty simple and should be easy to find for most.  Chorizo is commonly carried in grocery stores, however, if you have a problem finding it you can substitute with another spicy sausage, such as andouille.  Chicken Paella is a great family meal, you can switch up what types of veggies you include and chop them up to hide them from even the most persnickety eater.
