When you need to get dinner on the table fast for the kids try my Easy 10 Minute Paella

Cooking for the kids mid-week can be hectic. Even with the best meal planning and organisation intentions you can still end up staring into the fridge in the evening wondering what on earth to make for the kids!

On days like this I have a few super easy 10 Minute Meals that I rely on to whip up dinner in no time.

Here’s the first… my speedy 10 Minute Paella.

Now I know this isn’t authentic paella so I hope I don’t offend the entire Spanish population but for a quick and easy dinner for the kids it’s perfect.

I use lots of frozen ingredients to cut down on time spent chopping.

My favourite are frozen onions, garlic and chorizo.

Fry these in a little oil for a minute.

Then add some frozen peas, cooked chicken, a packet of microwave rice and some smoked paprika.

Add a couple of tablespoons of water to help loosen the rice.

There’s no need to cook the rice.

There’s no need to microwave the rice first. It will cook in the pan.

And that’s it. 5 minutes max of cooking time and you’re ready to serve up.

I add some chopped veggies like carrots, cucumber and cherry tomatoes to the side.
