Spanish Paella with Chicken and Prawns

I’ve had the privilege of sampling some amazing food from many different countries all over the world; but one dish in particular has always stood out to me – Spanish Paella. Being one of my favourites, I knew I had to try and replicate it myself at home, so I came up with our Spanish Paella Spice mix. This blend is the perfect balance of sweet, smoky and spicy, which to me, Spanish cuisine is all about. I just love the classic combination of spicy chorizo, tender chicken and sweet prawns, but you can add in, take out and substitute for any other seafood or protein of your choice; you could even sub-in some capsicum and zucchini for a great vegetarian or meat-free Monday option.

When constructing this recipe, my aim was to not only emulate the authentic Spanish flavours but make it as easy and straight forward as possible. Mid-week, I have this dish cooked and on the table in under an hour and the flavour is second-to-none with our spice mix doing the heavy flavour-lifting for you. Give this simple recipe a go and bring the flavours of Spain to your kitchen.
