Fresh Saffron-Spiced Seafood and Vegetable Rice
A vibrant, aromatic dish featuring tender shrimp and succulent scallops nestled on a bed of saffron-infused brown rice accented with crisp red and yellow bell peppers, red onion, and sweet peas. This medley is lightly glazed in olive oil and garlic for a burst of flavor that’s both satisfying and balanced.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Shrimp
3 oz Scallops
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Yellow Bell Pepper
1/2 medium Red Onion
1/2 cup Green Peas
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 pinch Saffron Threads
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken/Seafood Broth
PREPARATION
Rinse the saffron threads in a small amount of warm broth to release their flavor and deep color.
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic and chopped red onion until fragrant and softened.
Add diced red and yellow bell peppers along with the green peas, and cook for about 3-4 minutes until slightly tender.
Stir in the brown rice and pour in the remaining broth, allowing the saffron-infused broth to meld with the vegetables.
Gently fold in the shrimp and scallops, cooking for 4-5 minutes until the seafood is just cooked through and opaque.
Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm, enjoying the delicate balance of ocean flavors with the aromatic hints of saffron and vibrant vegetables.
