Zubereitung von Cajun Paella

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, non-stick paella pan or wide, shallow pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add 1 pound of diced chicken breast and 8 ounces of sliced andouille sausage. Cook until chicken is browned and sausage is slightly crispy, about 8-10 minutes.
  2. Add 1 medium diced onion to the pan and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium.
  3. Stir in 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp, 1 (28 ounce) can of crushed tomatoes, 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  4. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes, or until shrimp are pink and cooked through.
  5. Add 1 cup of diced bell peppers (any color), 1 (14 ounce) can of artichoke hearts, drained, and any other desired vegetables (e.g., 1/2 cup of chopped green onions).
  6. Reduce heat to low and stir in 3 cups of long-grain rice. Pour in 4 cups of hot chicken broth, ensuring the rice is fully submerged. Stir in 1 teaspoon of turmeric.
  7. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed. Do not lift the lid during cooking.
  8. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley and/or green onions before serving.
