INGREDIENTS
4 oz Shrimp
2 oz Scallops
1/2 cup Cooked Saffron Rice
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Saffron
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F for roasting the vegetables.
Toss chopped bell pepper, zucchini, and carrot with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
Rinse the rice and cook it according to package directions. In the final minutes of cooking, steep a pinch of saffron in a tablespoon of hot water and stir it through the rice for a fragrant, golden finish.
While the vegetables roast and rice cooks, pat the shrimp and scallops dry. Mince the garlic.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and briefly sauté until fragrant, then add the shrimp and scallops. Sear them for about 2 minutes per side until they develop a light golden crust and are just cooked through.
Plate the saffron rice as a base, top with the pan-seared seafood, and add a generous serving of roasted vegetables on the side. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately.
