Instructions

  1. In a 4 to 5 quart slow cooker, mix together the rice, tomatoes, broth, saffron and paprika.
  2. In a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, heat the oil until hot but not smoking. Add the sausage and onion and cook until the sausage is browned and the onion is softened. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage and onion to the slow cooker and stir well.
  3. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chicken to the same skillet. Cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
  4. Place the chicken on top of the rice mixture. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.
  5. Add the peas to the slow cooker; stir. Top with the shrimp, cover and cook an additional 30 minutes, until the shrimp and peas are cooked through.
