Kitchen Princess is a manga by Natsumi Ando and Miyuki Kobayashi in which every chapter is named after a dish. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of that dish, not the recipe from the book.
A real Spanish paella simmers raw rice in broth for about 30 minutes and is famous for its crispy bottom. Ready-cooked rice gets you the color and flavor in a quarter of the time. Leave the pan on the heat 2 minutes without stirring at the end for a little crispy layer.
Make it a learning moment: paella gets its yellow color from saffron, which comes from a flower. It takes thousands of flowers to make a little bit.
