Embrace the bold flavors of this Spanish Rice with Chorizo. The smoky, spiced sausage infuses the rice with its rich flavors, while tomatoes and bell peppers add depth and freshness. It’s a one-pan wonder that will have you dreaming of sunny coastlines and lively Spanish nights.
In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chorizo and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add chopped onion and red bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute.
Add the chopped tomatoes and smoked paprika, stirring to combine.
Add the rice and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently to coat the rice with the tomato mixture.
Return the chorizo to the pan and pour in the chicken broth. Season with salt and pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
Remove from heat, fluff the rice with a fork, and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
