How to make it
- Bring 12 cups of water to a boil and add the lobsters. Allow the water
- to return to a boil and cook for 12 minutes, then drain. (Save the water
- if you are making lobster stock; otherwise discard the water). Cool
- the lobster slightly under cold running water. Remove the meat from
- the lobster tails and claws, picking out the cartilage and bones. Set
- the meat aside. In a large saucepan, place the butter and the chicken and saute over medium heat. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and keep warm. To the juices in the pan, add the chorizo and cook for about 5 minutes. Add the onion, bell pepper, tomato, garlic, and jalapeño pepper to the pan and sauté for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft. Add the rice, lobster stock, wine, and seasonings and cover the saucepan. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the lobster meat, chicken, and peas and continue cooking until all the liquid is absorbed. Serve the paella with warm bread. For extra pizzazz, spoon Sofrito or Creole Sauce over the top.
