I grew up eating paella every sunday, it´s what you do when you´re from Valencia, Spain. Even when we lived in California, we ate paella every sunday. That being said, we almost always ate the same paella every sunday, the typical paella Valenciana with chicken and rabbit. The thing is, there is so much more to paella than just the traditional ones, like this one here. Loaded with Spanish flavors, beyond easy to make and done in 45 minutes. This is the Easiest Seafood Paella Recipe you will ever find and guarantees to be one of the best paellas you will ever taste.
