We loved it! Followed the recipe to the tee. Except some vegetable broth at the end to make It more of a paella broth for dipping bread. Overall Delicious!
Make sure you use the small grain rice, especially when using a crockpot!! Overall we loved it it. My 12 year actually had seconds... So a 10 I my book!

A waste of time. The rice never cooked, why. Other making this dish in a slow cooker if you have to cook it for 6+ hours. Easily could have made all these things separate in under 2 hours. Very disappointed and a waste of my time. Wish I read these comments before attempting. Do not make this.

I had to put my crockpot on high, not low as written in the instructions. Made sure i had short grain rice and had no problems with this recipe. It was quite delicious, especially it being the first time I made it.

Since I didn’t have short grain rice I had problems getting it to cook. After 3.5 frustrating hours on high I moved everything to a pot and simmered it for 30 min. It’s pretty tasty

do not follow the directions unless you want uncooked rice soup. It was nothing like what the video showed. It’s been 2 hours. I just bumped it to high. Maybe it will be ready to eat tomorrow. Frozen pizza it is. Find a different recipe if you want paella.

I LITERALLY made an account just to complain about this recipe. I followed this recipe to a T. The rice never cooked AT ALL and even after an extra 1 hour on HIGH it came out uncooked and BLAND. It was like if I dumped weak tea into some shrimp and chicken. I never make bad reviews usually but this was HORRIBLE. I actually ended up attempting to mix spaghetti sauce into it to at least have a topper for spaghetti and that failed too. Now I wasted a ton of time and food.

Too much onion, not enough flavour. The cook time was somewhere between 2:45hrs and 3:15hrs but ended up partly mushy and partly crunchy. I ended up having to pick out the chicken, chorizo and prawns and try to make something else from them.

Ignore 2 hours, it takes 4 half on low. Also you need more stock than that. Wayyyy more stock. I used a bottle of wine pretty much as I run out of stock. 

I cooked the chicken and chorizo in butter with a dap of olive oil. Then chucked in the onion and garlic. Once onions soaked up the butter. chucked in tinned tomato’s and tomato puree. Then bashed it all in the slow cooker with the rest of the ingredients. Kept it alive with wine as didn’t have enough stock. It takes amazing.

It had good flavor but it took 3 hours on high for rice to cook. Won’t do it again

I should have read all of the reviews before attempting the recipe.  Took way too long to cook. After bumping the heat up to high, I still had rice that did not cook.  Recipe did not look anything like the picture.  Finally turned the pot off and it looked soggy.

Be sure to cook the rice (not dry rice). Def needs more than 1.5 -2 hours on low. Might add a splash extra broth. Go heavy on the spices and garlic for solid flavor.

Very good just precook the shrimp and the rice it will be ok

I like many of your recipes and this one is tasty also. However, it is no where close to paella. The characteristic crunchy rice, or socarrat, in paella doesn't happen in a slow cooker. Leave out the peas and this is much more aptly named as jambalaya.

Who wrote this recipe? Did no one test it before publishing it? It is completely off in time and temp! It was no where near cooked after two hours. Probably should be set to high for at least two hours. What a waste of time and ingredients!
