Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound chorizo sausage
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast
3 cups cauliflower rice, divided
1 medium onion, diced
1 large yellow or orange bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 pinch salt
ground black pepper to taste
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can Hunt's® Diced Tomatoes
2 bay leaves
1 ½ teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
½ teaspoon crushed saffron threads
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ cup water
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cubes chicken bouillon
1 cup frozen peas
3 frozen tilapia fillets

Steps:

  • Place paella pan or large flat-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Cook and crumble chorizo sausage, stirring to break up chunks, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add chicken; cook and stir with sausage until chicken is no longer pink instead and is browned. Transfer chicken and sausage to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add 2 cups of the cauliflower rice. Cook, stirring for 5 minutes to brown the cauliflower slightly (this brings out a nutty flavor). Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Season with a pinch of salt, and pepper to taste. Add the minced garlic. Cook 2 minutes longer.
  • Pour canned tomatoes into pan. Add bay leaves, thyme leaves, saffron, and basil. Mix well. Transfer sausage and chicken mixture back to pan. Add water, tomato paste, and bouillon. Stir to combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer 15 minutes.
  • Remove lid and fold in peas and remaining 1 cup of cauliflower rice. Place frozen tilapia filets on top of the paella mixture, cover and steam for another 10 minutes. Remove lid and check for doneness. Gently break apart fillets with wooden spoon, and stir to incorporate chunks of fish into paella.
  • Serve from the pot at the table!

  • Place cauliflower florets into a food processor or blender. Pulse for about 10-20 seconds until cauliflower resembles a rice texture. Do not over pulse, or it will become mushy. Set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp oil, then saute garlic and onion for 3-4 minutes. If using raw chorizo, add it here and cook for 4-5 minutes. Now add bell pepper and cauliflower rice. Continue to saute for 5-6 minutes, consistently stirring.
  • Now add tomatoes, paprika, saffron, salt, and chorizo. If using precooked sausage, slice into bite size pieces and toss into the mixture. Now add the shrimp.
  • Place white wine, lemon juice, and tomato paste into the skillet. Increase heat to medium high and bring to a quick boil. Now reduce the heat to a simmer, and let the flavors meld while the shrimp cooks. Continue to stir and cook for another 8-10 minutes.

  • Sauté the onion over a medium high heat until soft, about 3-5 minutes. Add the chicken and chorizo sausage. Season and cook until it is all evenly seared.
  • Add the tomato, garlic, saffron, cauliflower and a little splash of broth (not the entire 1/2 cup). Be very careful with the broth as all the veggies release their own liquid and you don't want the dish to be too watery. Only add more if needed.
  • When the cauliflower is just about cooked, after about 6-8 minutes, add the scallops, shrimp and peas and cook for another minute.
  • Lastly, add the butter and check the seasoning and adjust if needed. Stir until the butter is melted.
