INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Shrimp
3 ounces Mussels
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, diced
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
A pinch of Saffron Threads
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, steep the saffron threads in 2 tablespoons of warm water to release their color and aroma.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and smoked paprika, stirring for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the diced tomatoes and chicken broth, then add the saffron infusion, mixing well.
Add the cooked brown rice to the skillet, stirring to combine with the sauce.
Gently place the shrimp and mussels on top of the rice mixture. Season with salt and black pepper.
Cover the skillet and allow the seafood to steam and cook through for about 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and mussels open. Discard any mussels that do not open.
Mix everything gently before serving to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
