Ingredients
- 500 g (1lb) prawns / shrimp peeled and deveined
- 250 g (½lb) calamari
- 250 g (½lb) half-shell mussels
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 4 garlic cloves crushed
- 400 g (14oz) chopped tomatoes
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 cups shortgrain rice (Arborio, Bomba)
- 4 cups chicken / fish stock
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- Lemon wedges for serving
- chopped parsley for serving
Instructions
- Peel and devein the prawns/shrimp then pat the shrimp and calamari dry with paper towels.
- Place a large, deep pan (approximately 11-12inches/30cm) over high heat. Drizzle the calamari and shrimp with olive oil and season with salt then sear in the hot pan until a little color develops but the seafood isn't cooked fully yet.
- Remove the seafood from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add olive oil and cook the onion and garlic until translucent and fragrant.
- Add the tomatoes and cook for a few minutes until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Pour in the rice and smoked paprika and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour in the stock then reduce the heat, partially cover and allow to simmer for 10-12 minutes or until most of the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is almost cooked.
- Tuck in the seafood, trying not to disturb the bottom layer of rice. Cover again then cook for another 5-7 minutes until the seafood and rice are fully cooked.
- Season to taste and serve with lemon wedges and chopped parsley.
