Pasta Paella

Used this stuff
image

Some missing ingredients so here is full list

2 cans diced tomatoes
2 large tomatoes
2 large onions
6 small peppers
2 Tbsp chopped garlic
pinch safron
3 cups chicken stock
1 cup frozen peas
Chicken wings - previously cooked
1 zucchini
1 squash
16 oz capellini
Lime and parsley for garnish

Toasted the safron then added stock - brought to a boil and reduced heat

The sofrito - tomatoes along with juice, onions, garlic and peppers cooked till dry - started with the dome temp at 250, closed the bottom vent and cooked dome open stirring often

Added the zuke and squash a couple minutes before sofrito was done

Had a hot spot around 2 o'clock so turned the pan every couple minutes. Removed the sofrito to brown the pasta.

Browning the pasta - have to keep stirring or the whole lot will burn. Paused for quick pic.

Once the pasta was browned, added the sofrito, 3 cups stock, 1 cup peas. A quick stir and then the chicken went on. Meanwhile the dome temp crept up to 400 with all the open dome cooking. Took about 8 minutes for the pasta to cook.

Would normally go with seafood on this cook but used chicken for the eggsperiment.

Muy bueno
