Paella-Style Baked Rice with Sausage and Shrimp

My dishwasher was on the fritz this week, which was totally not cool since we just replaced our fridge a few months ago. Thankfully I was able to order the part and fix it myself, but since Amazon took their sweet time getting it to me, I had a period of 3 days where I had to hand wash everything. I know, what a thing to complain about with all of the other real issues in the world, but my plate is already overflowing and I didn't need extra tasks this week. I relied heavily on recipes that didn't add to the piles in the sink. If I could get a twofer, like chili that we could eat 2 nights in a row, or one-pan meals, I was all on it. My daughter has been talking about wanting paella recently and I remembered I had saved a one-pan paella recipe from Golden Blossom Honey recently (Paella-Style Baked Rice with Sausage and Shrimp), so there was no better time to give it a whirl.  

 

As far as one-pan meals go, this one is tip top! Super easy and super delish, and with my family, there is something for everyone in the ingredient list. While Allison and I skip the sausage, which is easy enough to pick out, it's my husband's favorite part of the dish. For us girls though, the shrimp and chickpeas are where the party is at. My daughter actually thought she never liked chickpeas, but after trying this was like "I guess I do like them after all!" Our palates are ever changing, so it goes to show that there's always room to explore new and old foods alike. And even if your dishwasher isn't on the fritz, we could all use a little time saving in the kitchen, so having one-pan meals such as this one to lean on is always a good idea.
