Smoky Saffron Seafood with Crispy Rice
Sautéed shrimp and cod simmered in a fragrant saffron broth, served over a bed of golden, crispy jasmine rice for a satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz raw shrimp
4 oz cod fillet
0.5 cup cooked jasmine rice
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.13 tsp saffron threads
0.5 tsp smoked paprika
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup yellow onion
0.25 cup red bell pepper
0.25 cup seafood stock
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Heat 1 tsp of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Press the cooked jasmine rice into the pan in a flat, even layer and cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy.
While the rice is crisping, heat the remaining 1 tsp of olive oil in a separate wide pan over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the second pan, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the smoked paprika, saffron threads, sea salt, and black pepper to toast the spices for 30 seconds.
Place the cod and shrimp into the pan, then pour in the seafood stock.
Cover the pan with a lid and simmer for 4-5 minutes until the fish flakes easily and the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Remove from heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice.
Carefully slide the crispy rice onto a plate and top with the seafood and the flavorful saffron broth.
