Paella is thought of as Spain’s national dish. This is only true if you are not from Spain. Though paella has ancient roots, today’s dish owes its origin to the coastal Valencia region of Spain in the mid 19th century.
- Combine 4 tablespoons of olive oil with the smoked sea salt, Old Bay, Spanish & Smoked Paprika and cumin.
- Pour over the salmon and massage in. Put in an airtight container and store overnight.
- Heat a paella pan or skillet on medium high heat. Add the oil and cook for 2 minutes until it is good and hot.
- Add the onions and green peppers and cook for 4 - 5 minutes until soft.
- Add the rice and toast for 2 minutes.
- Add the seafood stock 1 cup at a time. Stir and do not add the second cup of stock until the first cup has been all but absorbed.
- After the second cup of stock, add the tomatoes including its liquid. Continuing the absorbing process.
- At the same time, heat a cast iron skillet on medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the salmon and cook 4 minutes on each side and set aside.
- Back to the rice. Once the 4 cups of stock have been absorbed add the corn and peas.
