Golden Saffron Seafood Paella
Saffron-infused rice simmered with shrimp and mussels, featuring a vibrant blend of peppers and peas for a fragrant, one-pan masterpiece.
INGREDIENTS
1 tsp olive oil
6 oz shrimp
4 oz mussels
0.33 cup bomba rice
0.75 cup seafood broth
0.25 cup red bell pepper
0.25 cup onion
1 clove garlic
0.1 tsp saffron threads
0.5 tsp smoked paprika
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 cup frozen peas
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 wedge lemon
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a paella pan or wide skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and red bell pepper, sautéing until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, and saffron threads, cooking for one minute until fragrant.
Add the dry bomba rice to the pan, stirring to coat the grains in the oil and spices for about one minute.
Pour in the seafood broth and season with sea salt and black pepper; bring to a gentle simmer.
Arrange the shrimp and mussels evenly over the rice, then reduce heat to low.
Cover and cook for 12-15 minutes without stirring, allowing the rice to absorb the liquid and the mussels to open.
Scatter the frozen peas over the top during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before garnishing with fresh parsley and a lemon wedge.
