Spanish Seafood Paella with Saffron Rice
Saffron-infused rice simmered with succulent shrimp and mussels, featuring a vibrant blend of peppers and smoked paprika for a fragrant Mediterranean experience.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
4 count Mussels
0.13 cup Bomba rice
1 cup Seafood broth
0.13 tsp Saffron threads
0.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup Yellow onion
0.25 cup Red bell pepper
1 clove Garlic
0.25 cup Tomato puree
0.5 tsp Smoked paprika
0.25 cup Frozen peas
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.13 tsp Black pepper
1 piece Lemon
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a wide skillet or paella pan over medium heat.
Sauté the diced yellow onion and red bell pepper until they become tender and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic, tomato puree, and smoked paprika, cooking for 2 minutes to meld the flavors.
Add the Bomba rice to the pan, stirring constantly for 1 minute to lightly toast the grains.
Pour in the seafood broth and add the saffron threads, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Arrange the shrimp and mussels evenly on top of the rice and season with sea salt and black pepper.
Reduce the heat to low and cook undisturbed for 15 minutes to allow the rice to absorb the liquid and form a crust.
Scatter the frozen peas over the top and cook for an additional 3 minutes until the seafood is opaque and cooked through.
Garnish the dish with fresh parsley and serve with a lemon piece for a bright finish.
