Devilish Seafood Paella

Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh Tasmanian seafood mix (such as prawns, mussels, and fish)
  • 2 cups Tasmanian short-grain rice
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp saffron threads
  • 4 cups seafood or vegetable broth
  • 1/4 cup Tasmanian olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large paella pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are softened.
  2. Add the Tasmanian seafood mix to the pan and cook until the seafood is almost fully cooked.
  3. Stir in the smoked paprika and saffron threads, then add the Tasmanian short-grain rice. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
