Spice mix for chicken:
Equipment:

Heat oil in the pan over medium-high heat. Sauté the chorizo sausage until browned. Remove and set aside. Add the chicken and cook thoroughly, browning on all sides. Remove from pan and set aside. In the same pan, sauté the onions until translucent. Add the garlic. Be careful not to burn it. Add the tomatoes and cook until the mixture caramelizes a bit and the flavors meld. Fold in the rice and stir-fry to coat the grains. Add 3 cups of water and the seasoning packets from Rice-A-Roni. Simmer for 10 minutes, gently moving the contents around so the rice cooks evenly and absorbs all the liquid. Add the chicken, chorizo sausage and saffron to the Dutch oven. Cover with the lid. Place on coals. Put 10-15 coals on top. Simmer, without stirring, until the rice is al dente (about 15 additional minutes). When the paella is cooked and the rice looks moist and fluffy, return the Dutch oven to the coals for 40 seconds to 1 minute or until you can smell the rice toasting at the bottom. Then it is perfect. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with lemon wedges and rehydrated dried peas (optional).
