An easy swap: Not a seafood fan? Swap in boneless skinless chicken thighs and chorizo instead. Here's how: cut the chicken thighs into bite size pieces and slice the chorizo. Before beginning the recipe, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat and cook the chicken thighs and chorizo until brown and just cooked through. Remove from the pan and then begin with step 1. Add the chicken and chorizo back in step 5 when the rice is almost cooked through.
