PREPARATION

  • 1

    In a small bowl, crush the saffron threads into the seafood broth and set aside to infuse.

  • 2

    Heat olive oil in a small paella pan or wide skillet over medium heat.

  • 3

    Add the diced onion and red bell pepper, sautéing until the vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized.

  • 4

    Stir in the crushed tomatoes, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper, cooking for 2 minutes to create a thick base (sofrito).

  • 5

    Add the Bomba rice to the pan, stirring for 1 minute to toast the grains and coat them in the tomato mixture.

  • 6

    Pour in the saffron-infused broth and stir once to distribute the rice evenly; do not stir again to allow a crust (socarrat) to form on the bottom.

  • 7

    Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, then nestle the cod chunks, shrimp, and mussels into the rice.

  • 8

    Scatter the frozen peas over the top and continue to simmer for another 8-10 minutes until the liquid is absorbed, the seafood is cooked through, and the mussels have opened.

  • 9

    Remove from heat, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let rest for 5 minutes.

  • 10

    Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with a lemon wedge for squeezing.
