Easy Paella

by:




Once in a while I enjoy cooking non-Japanese food, like paella. The recipe I share may not be labeled authentic because I use Japanese rice instead of Bomba or Calasparra rice. However this recipe allows me to prep the paella using the existing ingredients that are already in the pantry.
