Paella is a classic Spanish dish that will win over any crowd! It is packed with tons of vegetables and is so rich in flavour. People will think you were in the kitchen preparing all day but this recipe is really so easy to make.  The Arborio rice is perfect to absorb large amounts of broth and leaves a little more crunchy texture to the dish. Saffron is also an incredible ingredient that is full of antioxidants.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon saffron threads
  • 1 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced thinly
  • 1 yellow pepper, sliced thinly
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 cup of baby artichokes, drained and quartered
  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups paella rice -Arborio rice,
  • 3 cups veggie stock
  • 2 cups Swiss chard
  • 1 cup drained canned diced tomatoes
  • 3/4 teaspoon paprika (smoked)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup shelled fresh peas or frozen peas
  • Optional:  15 Shrimps, peeled and de-vein,
  • Garnish: Sliced lemon wedges around the outside and sprinkle with chopped parsley

Directions
