INGREDIENTS
4 oz Shrimp
4 oz Mussels
0.5 cup Cooked Brown Rice (Saffron Infused)
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
0.5 cup Red Bell Pepper
1 cup Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Pinch Saffron Threads
PREPARATION
Rinse and prepare shrimp and mussels, ensuring mussels are debearded and cleaned.
In a small bowl, steep a pinch of saffron threads in a tablespoon of warm water to release its color and aroma.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the shrimp and mussels to the skillet and cook until the shrimp turns pink and mussels open up, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the cooked brown rice and saffron water, mixing evenly so the rice acquires a beautiful golden hue.
Fold in the fresh vegetables – cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, and spinach – and cook just until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve hot, garnished with extra fresh herbs if desired.
