The perfect party dish, this giant paella is a meal in one as well as a stunning center piece. This dish is incredibly flexible and I also look for ways to add more color. Be sure to use the red pepper! This recipe starts on the stove and finishes in the oven so the house smells amazing and your masterpiece is waiting patiently in the oven while your guests arrive.
