Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds pork shoulder cubed or use leftover pulled pork
  • 2 links chourico sliced or use ground either chourico or chorizo
  • 2-3 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 cups arborio rice
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 4 cups chicken stock

Instructions
 

  • If you are cooking the cubes pork swirl some olive oil in the bottom of your pan. Add the pork and the garlic and saute on medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Slice thin and add the chourico continue sauteing until the pork is medium brown.
  • Add the paprika and the rice. continue stirring until the rice is well coated. Stir in the tomato sauce and the wine. Add chicken stock and bring to a boil
  • As soon as it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover. Cook on low heat for 20-30 minutes or until the rice is soft and fluffy.
  • Give it a quick stir and either serve it right from the pot or transfer to a serving dish. I will add that the leftovers, if there are any, taste great with a poached egg on top. I would even try browning some of the pork mixture before adding the egg.
