Hmmmm, I know someone who knows how to cook it

Mitch, I know how to cook paella and carbonara...I could help you....I could even cook it for you...just not include seafoods..just chorizo, chicken, pork, and add lots of saffron...that's the miracle thread of paella. Are u also allergic with scallops? That's also good substitute..but I'm not sure if ur also allergic with that..I hope not...coz' it's really yummy....
But still can't imagine paella without a single seafood.. the more we should meet here in manila so I could teach you how.

Hi Mitch,
Try this but delete all seafood you can read LOLS di masarap pag walang seafood.
Traditional Spanish paella recipe.

4 chicken thighs, skin off, each cut into 4 pieces

1 tablespoon oil

1 clove garlic, crushed

1 onion, thinly sliced

1+1/2 cups arborio rice

1 teaspoon tumeric (or saffron for a more authentic flavour)

1 teaspoon smoked or sweet paprika

5 cups chicken stock

400g green prawns, shelled

1 medium-sized green capsicum, diced

1 medium-sized red capsicum, diced

2 tablespoons parsley leaves, finely chopped

1 lemon rind, finely grated


Heat oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat.

Add chicken and cook for 2 - 3 minutes or until browned.

Remove from pan.

Add garlic, onion, rice and spices and cook for 2 - 3 minutes.

Pour stock onto rice and return chicken.

Simmer (covered) for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir in prawns, capsicums, parsley and lemon rind. Cover and simmer for a further 10 minutes, stirring frequently until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Di ko alam magiging lasa pag walang seafood
