This was such an easy dish to make! It was also healthy, hearty and delicious!
I started with taking a can(or 2 cups of water with one chicken bouillon cube) of chicken stock and placing in my rice cooker(you can use a pot as well) I then added one cup of saffron rice.
Let cook for about 30-35 min. or until almost done (once the liquid has almost dissolved) and add one cup of frozen veggies. I used peas, corn and carrots. let sit in the rice for about 5 min. and that is done. while you are cooking the rice, take 3/4 lb. of large shrimp(de-veined and tails off ) and 1/2 lb. of scallops(I got the small scallops on sale for 1.99, but I would have used larger ones otherwise) and season. I used a season salt, pepper, paprika, chipolte powder and onion powder. Once seasoned heat up 2 tblspns. of oil in a pan and let get hot. I used grape seed oil(see below).
Then I sauteed the shrimp and scallops for about 5-8 , min. (or until done) topped with the juice of 1/2 a lime as well as the zest, placed on top of the rice and waaaallllaaaahhhhh! So delicious and super easy! Happy eating y'all!
