Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and red bell pepper, sautéing until softened.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Tomato

    Stir in the minced garlic and diced tomato, cooking until the tomato breaks down and blends into the mixture.

  3. 3

    Cook the Rice

    Add the long-grain rice, paprika, saffron, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir to coat the rice with the mixture.

  4. 4

    Add Liquid

    Pour in the fish stock or water, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Vegetables and Seafood

    After 15 minutes, add the frozen peas, shrimp, calamari, and mussels. Stir gently, cover again and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until the seafood is cooked through and the rice is tender.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat, fluff with a fork, and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
