This Spanish-inspired rice dish comes together easily in one pan, creating layers of flavor from chorizo, aromatics, and warm spices. Follow these steps for perfectly cooked rice with a delicious combination of textures and tastes.
For best results, avoid lifting the lid while the rice is cooking. This ensures even cooking and proper absorption of the liquid. If you can't find Spanish chorizo, you can substitute with Portuguese linguiça or even andouille sausage for a different but equally delicious variation.
