Cover and steam 7 to 8 minutes, or until shells have opened. Remove from broth and set aside. 2. Strain the cooking liquid into a 2-cup measure. If there is not enough liquid to measure 2 cups, add the chicken broth to make up the difference. Set aside. 3. Add the olive oil to a paella pan heated over medium flame & heat well. Saute chicken in the hot oil about 5 minutes, turning as the pieces brown. Season with the salt. Add the sliced ham and saute five minutes longer. Cover and cook about 15 minutes or until the chicken is tender. 4.
