Chicken and Chorizo Paella recipe
My idea was to create the simplest Chicken and Chorizo Paella recipe with ingredients that everyone has at home. So, chicken thighs (or wings), chorizo, canned tomatoes, rice, and chicken stock are all you need for this Chicken and Chorizo Paella recipe.
So let's go!
