Enjoy a vibrant medley of succulent shrimp and cod gently cooked with aromatic saffron-infused rice and bright, crisp vegetables.

INGREDIENTS
4 oz Shrimp
4 oz Cod
1/2 cup cooked Basmati Rice
1/2 cup Mixed Vegetables
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Saffron
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the saffron and let it steep in 2 tablespoons of warm water to release its color and aroma.
Season the shrimp and cod lightly with salt and pepper.
In a non-stick pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil and add the minced garlic, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp and cod to the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until the seafood is just opaque and tender.
In a separate bowl, combine the cooked basmati rice with the saffron water and a pinch of saffron, stirring to evenly distribute the flavor.
Fold in the mixed vegetables into the saffron rice, warming them together over low heat for 1-2 minutes.
Plate the saffron rice and vegetable mixture, then top with the cooked seafood.
Finish with an extra drizzle of olive oil or a squeeze of lemon if desired, and serve warm.
