Shellfish Paella
Ingredients
Sofrito
1/3 cup olive oil; 2 lb red onions, minced;
2 1/2 lb ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded
Picada
large garlic cloves, chopped; 2 tbs parsley;
1/2 tsp saffron threads; 3/4 tsp salt (to taste);
3/4 tsp ground white pepper (to taste)
Rice and Shellfish
small clams; mussels; 2 tbs olive oil; 2 lb squid;
1 1/2 cup short grained rice; 4 cups fish stock;
1/2 lb large scallops
Directions
To Prepare The Sofrito:
Heat oil in the paella
pan. Add onions and saute slowly over low
heat, stirring from time to time, until onions are
brown and almost carmelized. This will take 45
minutes to 1 hour. (add small amounts of water
if necessary so onions don't burn)
Add tomatoes and increase heat to medium;
cook until dry. Set aside.
To Prepare The Picada:
In a food processor,
finely grind all ingredients. Set aside.
To Prepare The Rice And Clams:
In a large pot,
bring about 1/2 cup water to a boil. Steam clams
and mussels on a rack over boiling water until
they open, 4 or 5 minutes for mussels and 5 to
10 minutes for clams. Set them aside, discarding
any that do not open. Strain broth through a fine
mesh strainer. Reserve.
To cook the rice and shellfish, preheat oven to
350 oF. In a medium skillet, heat oil; add squid
rings and tentacles. Saute for 2 or 3 minutes,
stirring. Add sauteed squid and their juices to
casserole or skillet with SOFRITO. Stir in rice and
PICADA.
Measure reserved broth and add enough fish
stock to equal 4 1/2 cups. Bring to a boil in a
medium saucepan. Add to casserole or skillet
and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes,
gently moving rice around so it cooks evenly
throughout. Add prawns and scallops, pushing
them down into rice so they are covered with
broth.
Transfer casserole or skillet to 350 °F oven and
cook another 10 minutes or until rice is slightly
underdone. Remove casserole from oven and
arrange mussels and clams on top. Cover with a
cloth and let dish sit for 10 minutes.
Serve immediately, garnished with lemon
wedges.
