Coachella Paella
Ingredients
- * 1/3 cup olive oil
- * 1 full head of peeled garlic, with cloves detached
- * 1 red pepper (cored, seeded and sliced into strips)
- * 5 boneless chicken breasts (original recipe recommends bone-in legs and thighs, but we wanted the more fuss-free alternative)
- * 1 yellow onion, chopped
- * 1 (16 oz) can diced tomatoes
- * 3 cups chicken stock
- * 20 saffron threads, crushed
- * 2 teaspoons paprika (original recipe recommends smoked)
- * 3 cups short-grain rice (uncooked, and we used a medium-grain Arborio)
- * 1 (16 oz) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
- * 1/4 lb green beans
- * 10-15 jumbo shrimp
- * 10 clams or mussels (Optional: eccentric seafood counter sales associate who tells you his favorite pastime is putting salt next to clams and drinking beer while you wait for it to stick its tongue out and lick the salt up)
- * 1 lemon, to add a splash of acidity at the end, and cut into wedges for garnish
