Ingredients:
- 2 cups broth -- either chicken broth, or half chicken, half clam juice
- chopped peeled tomato (drained from can, amount to taste)
- dash turmeric (for color )
- 5 minced garlic cloves
- 1 roasted peeled red pepper , cut into slices (or from jar)
- 10 mussels (debearded and cleaned)
- optional ingredients : you could add shrimp, artichoke hearts , peas , spanish sliced chorizo , but adjust proportions so that rice is not overwhelmed.
Directions:
- Boil together the broth, saffron and the broth it steeped in, tomato, paprika, turmeric, salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in the paella pan or cast iron 12 inch frying pan.
- Add garlic and onion and cook until soft, then remove.
- Brown chicken, adding oil as needed, until about 75% done, then remove.
- Scrape bottom of pan, add more oil, add rice, and cook until translucent.
- Add boiling broth, cook at medium for 5 minutes.
- Lower heat, arrange chicken, red pepper, mussels, and any optional ingredients, and cook 15 minutes
- Cover, continue cooking on very low, about 5 more minutes.
- Note: you may need to move pan around so heat is even; you want the water to be absorbed and the bottom to begin to get crusty.
- Let stand about 5 minutes, discard mussels that do not open.
