PREPARATION

  • 1

    In a small bowl, crumble saffron into warm seafood stock and let it bloom for 5 minutes.

  • 2

    Heat olive oil in a wide skillet over medium heat and sauté onion and red bell pepper until soft.

  • 3

    Add minced garlic, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant.

  • 4

    Stir in tomato puree and cook for 2 minutes until the mixture thickens into a rich sofrito.

  • 5

    Add the rice to the skillet, stirring to coat the grains thoroughly with the tomato and oil mixture.

  • 6

    Pour the saffron-infused stock over the rice and bring to a gentle simmer without stirring the rice again.

  • 7

    Cook for 10 minutes, then carefully arrange shrimp, mussels, and calamari on top of the rice.

  • 8

    Scatter frozen peas over the surface, cover the pan, and cook for 8 minutes until seafood is opaque and mussels open.

  • 9

    Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes to allow the bottom layer of rice to crisp slightly.

  • 10

    Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with a lemon wedge for a bright, acidic finish.
