I don't see the problem, I love chorizo in a paella (in a lot of things actually). I'm sure it can be part of a 'mixed' paella

A lot of supermarket paellas contain chorizo, and prawns, chicken, peas etc. I thought mixed paella could contain whatever you had on hand.

Knowing Jamie oliver, he is probably insisting spanish people use chorizo in paella or will be fined for it
Ooh! How long have you known him?

I made chilli con carne once and used chickpeas instead of kidney beans. i'd probably be shot for that if it was a spanish dish
Great example of how you can tweak a recipe and still classify it as chilli con carne.

I've eaten in his restaurant in Cardiff and can say that I had the most tender and flavoursome pork chop I've ever tasted - a meat I find much more difficult to cook well than steak, lamb or chicken.
Of course, I give the credit to the chef in the kitchen but JO's name is on the door.
