INGREDIENTS
3 oz Shrimp, cooked
3 oz Scallops, raw
1/2 cup cooked White Rice
1/2 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup sliced Zucchini
1/4 cup chopped Yellow Onion
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil
A pinch of Saffron Threads
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Toss the red bell pepper, zucchini, and yellow onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, warm the cooked rice with a pinch of saffron threads and a splash of water over low heat to allow the saffron’s aroma to infuse the rice.
Season the scallops and shrimp lightly with salt and pepper. In a heated non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, sear the scallops for 1-2 minutes per side until they develop a golden crust; add the shrimp for an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
Plate the saffron-infused rice and top it with the seared seafood and roasted vegetables. Garnish with a light drizzle of olive oil if desired and serve immediately.
