Paella

Time for some piping hot New Orleans type food.. And today I have a simple recipe.....One that gives a free plug...Something yall know I hate to do to Zatarain's... a company that makes my favorite New Orleans rice products among other things...

This dish is simple...It's called Paella. It looks good too...See the photo above? Doesn't that just make you hungry?... It makes me hungry...Let's get down with this recipe...

INGREDIENTS:



2 cups water

1/2 pound smoked sausage or andouille, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/4-inch thick

1 can (14 1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes

1 package ZATARAIN'S® Yellow Rice (Yeah..it's gotta be ZATARAINS Yellow rice!)

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined .(You can replace the shrimp,if you're allergic like me with Beef, Pork or Chicken.)

DIRECTIONS:

This is so easy...read carefully now!


1. Bring water, sausage, tomatoes, onion and parsley to boil in large skillet. Stir in Rice Mix. Return to boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 15 minutes.



2. Stir in shrimp and peas. Cover and cook 10 to 15 minutes longer or just until shrimp turn pink and rice is tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes.

That's it...Isn't that simple...
