Paella is a classic Spanish dish made with rice, seasonings, and a variety of other ingredients including vegetables, seafood, and sometimes even sausages. To make paella, start by heating olive oil in a large cast-iron pan. Add onions, garlic, and any other vegetables you want to use and sauté until softened. Next, stir in long-grain rice until it's coated with oil. Pour in vegetable broth and season with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and simmer for 20 minutes. Then, add your choice of proteins, such as shrimp, mussels, chicken, and/or chorizo. Cover and cook for another 20 minutes or until all the ingredients are cooked through. Serve hot and enjoy!
