I found this quick prawn paella recipe on the Olive magazine website when looking online for king prawn recipes.   The fact that it was quick to prepare and make really appealed, and we weren't disappointed.

This paella recipe for two is packed with prawns, red peppers and peas and spiced with smoky paprika, and is on the table in just over 30 minutes.

Tip

  • This quick prawn paella recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for more people.
