    Default First Paella!!!

    First time cooking Paella for me and damn if it didn't turn out purty damn good. Was pretty easy too. We used about 2 lbs of rice and the rest we just kinda added to flavor.

    Pork
    Chicken
    Muscles
    Clams
    Shrimp
    Chopped Onion
    Sliced Red Pepper
    Chicken Broth
    Salt & Pepper
    2 lbs rice (in a 22in pan)

    Saute onions in hearty dose of olive oil, throw in the chicken, add pork shortly thereafter. Once that is just starting to get a little sheen, add the rice and get it good and coated in the oil. then add the chicken broth to fill pan about 3/4 full. Bring to a simmer, add shrimp, clams, and muscles and let reduce a bit. Add the red peppers as the rice is just getting done, shrimp should be pink and muscles and clams popped. Once peppers start to soften a bit, remove from grill, cover with tin foil and let sit for 15-20 min. Pull the foil and enjoy.

    Never heard of such a thing?

    Plant, animal or mineral?

    Where does a Paella live, water, woods? Or where do it grow, mountaintops, fields, twixt a woman's thighs?

    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.
