Instructions

1
Set paella pan on stove over medium heat.
2
To make sofrito, add olive oil, onions, minced garlic, whole garlic cloves, saffron, salt and paprika. Stir-fry 5 to 7 minutes.
3
Add in tomatoes and cook 30 to 40 minutes on medium-low heat until liquid is completely cooked out and mixture is a rich red color.
4
While sofrito is cooking, add stock and wine to a sauce pot and bring to a boil. Cook 4 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.
5
If sofrito starts to burn, adjust heat and add a few tablespoons of water to deglaze pan and use spoon to scrape up any burned bits.
6
Add rice, chicken and chorizo to sofrito and stir-fry 5 to 7 minutes or until chicken is slightly browned.
7
Once rice is toasted, spread in an even layer in pan and pour in stock. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook 15 minutes.
8
Test rice on top to check for doneness. If rice is still a little hard, add more liquid 1/2 cup at a time.
9
Cover pan with foil, turn off heat and let paella continue to cook 8 to 10 minutes or until internal temperature of chicken is 165ºF.
10
Uncover and season to taste with more salt as needed.
