Shrimp And Sausage Quinoa Paella Recipes

Steps:

• Heat chicken broth in a small pot.
• Add saffron to a small bowl and pour in about 3 tablespoons of the warm chicken broth. Allow to steep until ready to use.
• Heat a 16-inch paella pan over medium heat. Add olive oil to coat. Add andouille sausage and sear until golden brown on all sides, then remove from the pan and set aside. Add the chicken and sprinkle with salt. Sear on all sides until golden brown (chicken doesn't need to be cooked through; it will continue to cook later). Remove chicken and set aside. Add the onions to the pan and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and pimenton and cook until just translucent and soft, about 2 minutes. Add the bell peppers and saute until they begin to soften, a few minutes. Add the saffron broth and stir to combine. Add the rice and stir to combine. Add the tomatoes and white wine, then bring to a boil. Add the remaining hot broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and allow rice to cook and liquid to be absorbed, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the peas, chicken and sausage. Sprinkle with salt. At this point it is important to stop stirring and allow the bottom to crisp up. That's the best part! Arrange the shrimp and mussels on top and cook; turn shrimp after 7 minutes. Continue to cook until shrimp have turned pink and mussels have opened, about 3 minutes more. Remove paella from the stove and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. Serve out of the paella pan and share with friends!

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, heat broth to boiling. Stir in saffron; set aside.
• Meanwhile, in large paella pan or 3-inch-deep 12-inch ovenproof skillet, cook sausage over medium heat about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until brown. Move sausage to one side of pan. Add bell peppers and onion to pan. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender. Stir in garlic and tomatoes; heat to boiling. Stir in rice, wine and heated broth mixture; heat to boiling. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer 15 minutes; remove from heat.
• Stir in shrimp and peas. Cover and simmer about 10 minutes or until rice is tender. Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• 1. Place shrimp in a small bowl, sprinkle with sweet and smoked paprika and onion powder, toss to coat. 2. Heat olive oil in a large stainless skillet (with a lid) over medium-high heat, cook shrimp until seared, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from pan, set aside. 3. Add Turkey sausage, breaking up the meat, cook until browned. Add the onion, bell peppers, cook, stirring frequently, until onions and peppers have softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, cook 30 seconds. Add tomatoes and tomato paste, stir until combined. 4. Add Saffron, remaining 1/4 tsp. smoked paprika, salt, pepper, chicken broth and peas, bring to a simmer. Add quinoa, stir and evenly distribute quinoa. Add the lid to the pan at a vent, adjust heat to maintain a simmer. Cook without stirring for 15-17 minutes, or until the quinoa is cooked through. 5. Place the shrimp on top, replace lid and cook 1 minute or until shrimp is warmed. 6. Sprinkle with parsley and serve. (approx. 380 calories a serving)

Steps:

• Heat 1 T oil in a dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat.

Steps:

• Peel and devein the shrimp, reserving the shells.
• Bundle the sprigs of parsley, bay leaf, sprigs of thyme, leek, and cloves into a Bouquet Garni. You may use a string to tie them together.
• In a 3-4 quart pot, combine the quartered onion, 2 garlic cloves, sliced carrot, Bouquet Garni, and broth or water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 45 minutes, or until fragrant.
• Strain, discard the solids, season with salt, and set aside.
• Scrub the littleneck clams and place in a medium pot with white wine, 2 garlic cloves, 2 tbsp chopped onion. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and cook for 5-6 minutes, until the clams have opened.
• Remove from heat, allow to cool enough to handle, and remove clams from shells. Set aside.
• Strain the broth through a fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth and combine with enough of the shrimp broth to measure 7 cups. Season the broth with salt.
• Transfer the broth to a saucepan and stir in the saffron threads, set aside.
• Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil and chorizo. Cook, turning occasionally, until browned and blistered on all sides and cooked through. This should take about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cut into 1/2" slices. Set aside.
• Season the fish with salt.
• Set a 12" or larger paella pan, braising pan, or 15" nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add and heat 2 tbsps olive oil.
• Add the fish and sear until the surface is opaque, about 1 minute each side. Set aside on a platter. Add the shrimp to the pan and cook, stirring, just until they turn pink, about 1 minutes. Transfer to a platter.
• Add olive oil and onion to the pan.
• Cook, stirring occasionally until the onion begins to color. Meanwhile, bring the reserved broth to a simmer.
• Add 8 cloves garlic and bell pepper to the onion. Cook, stirring for 30-60 seconds ensuring the garlic does not burn.
• Add tomatoes, paprika and salt, stir and cook until fragrant (2-3 minutes).
• Stir in the chorizo to the onion pan, then stir in the rice until it is coated with oil.
• Add the bay leaf, peas, and green beans.
• Add the broth and mussels. Be sure to push the mussels down into the broth.
• Arrange the clams, shrimp, and fish over the top without pushing into the broth. Cook uncovered, at a moderate bubble, without stirring or poking for 20-24 minutes or until the broth has been absorbed.
• Remove from heat, cover with foil and let sit undisturbed for 10-15 minutes.
