Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a large wok or frying pan add your onion, garlic, chicken, pepper, chorizo and cook on a medium heat for 5 minutes.
  • While it is cooking cook your cauliflower rice for 5 minutes on 180c in the airfryer with some olive oil so that it can get crispy like uncooked rice.
  • Season the wok ingredients with paprika, tomato puree, cauliflower rice and mix well.
  • Add the rest of the seasoning, chicken stock and bring to the boil and then simmer for a further 5 minutes.
  • Serve with sliced lemon.

Notes

You get the best results from cauliflower rice if you have previously created the rice and it has been in the freezer and cooked from frozen. Otherwise you wont have the white rice look.
Garden peas are often associated with paella. When I make this for my son he loves it with garden peas but this is optional and if you are on paleo just avoid it.
I know the stock amount is low; this is because it is not grainy rice so it doesn’t have as much to hang onto in order to reduce. Though if you did it on 500ml of stock you could make a lovely risotto.
