Ingredients
Method
- Season squid with 1 tsp salt and sprinkle over 1 tsp paprika. Toss in 2 tbs oil.
- Heat a large frying pan (or paella pan) over medium–high heat. Add half the squid and cook, tossing, for 3–4 minutes until charred and tender. Repeat with remaining squid.
- Wipe the pan clean and return to medium heat. Add remaining oil, capsicum and onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add garlic, remaining paprika and saffron and cook 1 minute or until fragrant.
- Add the rice and stock. Bring to a simmer and cook 20 minutes or until rice is almost cooked.
- Add the peas and parsley. Return squid to the pan.
- Cook a further 2–3 minutes to heat through. Sprinkle over extra paprika and serve with dill and lemon.
