INSTRUCTIONS
*Spanish chorizo, a fresh, garlic-flavored pork link sausage that is milder
than Mexican chorizo, is available at Spanish markets. Linguiça, a
similar Portuguese sausage, is available at Spanish and Latin American
markets.
Combine oregano, thyme and parsley in small bowl. Transfer half of chopped
herbs to processor. Add 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon red wine,
peppercorns, coriander, 3 minced garlic cloves, cayenne, salt and vinegar.
Blend until coarse paste forms. Place chicken on large plate. Rub all but 2
tablespoons paste mixture over chicken. Cover and chill until ready to use.
Divide 1/4 cup olive oil between 2 large Dutch ovens or heavy large deep
skillets over medium heat. Divide chorizo, onions, tomatoes, ham, salt
pork, remaining chopped herbs and remaining 5 minced garlic cloves between
Dutch ovens. Cook until onions are soft but not brown, crumbling sausage
with fork and stirring frequently, about 15 minutes. Transfer chorizo
mixture to large bowl. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate
remaining 2 tablespoons herb paste, chicken legs and chorizo mixture
separately.)
Divide remaining 1/4 cup olive oil between Dutch ovens. Add half of chicken
and Italian sausages to each Dutch oven and cook until brown and partially
cooked, turning frequently, about 8 minutes for sausages and 12 minutes for
chicken. Transfer to plate. Return half of chorizo mixture to each Dutch
oven.
Meanwhile, bring stock and clam juice to simmer in heavy medium saucepan.
Add saffron and mix well.
Add half of rice to each Dutch oven. Cook over high heat until opaque,
stirring frequently, about 5 minutes. Divide remaining herb paste and
remaining 7 tablespoons wine between Dutch ovens. Bring to simmer, scraping
up any bits. Stir half of stock mixture into each Dutch oven. Divide
shrimp, clams, mussels, fish and bay leaves between Dutch ovens. Bring to
boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until rice is very tender, stirring
occasionally, about 25 minutes. Discard any clams or mussels
