One of the best experiences of our European adventure was enjoying an authentic Paella cooking class at " Mi Paella en el Huerto " ("My Paella in the Garden").

Ingredients

  • 1/2 TBS Olive oil
  • 2-3 small pieces of chicken, on the bone. Cut up thighs and wings are best. Each piece should be 2 to 2.5 oz.
  • 2-3 small pieces of rabbit, on the bone. (No rabbit? No problem. We usually use country style pork ribs cut into bite-sized (2 to 2.5 oz) pieces . Valencians would call this "Mountain Paella".)
  • 3/4 cup of green beans cut into 2 to 3-inch lengths. [The Valencians use a local wide bean called "Ferradura" or "Batxoqueta". A bit difficult to find in the US.]
  • 1/2 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 pinch of saffron
  • 1/2 cup "Bomba" Rice. [In a pinch use a short/medium grain rice - like a risotto rice - NEVER LONG GRAIN.]
  • 2 cups water (4 parts water for each part rice - 1 part will simmer off while making the broth and 3 parts is absorbed by the rice)
  • Salt
  • 1 sprig of fresh rosemary
