Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°. Brown sausage in large skillet over medium-high heat, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

    Step 2

    Heat olive oil in 6½-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook until golden, stirring often, about 12 minutes. Add bell pepper; cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in rice and saffron, then next 5 ingredients. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; cover and cook 15 minutes. Add sausage, turkey, and peas to rice mixture. Bake paella 10 minutes and serve.

    Editor's Note: If you can't find garlic-flavored olive oil, simply add a clove of minced garlic when you stir in the rice.
