Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts cut into pieces
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 onion chopped
- 1 green bell pepper chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup white wine
- 1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 pinch saffron threads
- 1 ½ cups spanish rice like Calrose rice
- 2 ½ cups chicken broth
- 1 lb large shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 lb mussels

Garnish
- parsley

Instructions
- Combine chicken pieces in a mixing bowl with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large pot or large skillet.
- Once heated, add onion, green bell pepper, and garlic. Cook for around 3-4 minutes until the onion and pepper start to soften.
- Add the seasoned chicken, white wine, diced tomatoes, bay leaf, Spanish rice, saffron threads, and chicken broth. Give the mixture a good stir until all ingredients are well combined. Cook covered at a steady simmer over medium heat to low heat for around 20 minutes or until the rice has absorbed the liquid and is fully cooked or al dente. Be sure not to stir the rice during this process so the rice can form a nice crispy crust at the bottom of the pan.
- During the last 5 minutes of cooking time, add shrimp, mussels, and frozen peas.
- Once done, remove from heat, remove the lid, fold in lemon juice, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
