1 container chicken broth 1/4 tsp. saffron threads 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 package chorizo sausage 1 medium fennel bulb 1 medium onion 2 clove garlic 2 medium tomatoes 1/3 c. fresh parsley leaves 2 c. Spanish short-grain or Arborio rice 1 1/4 lb. large shrimp 2 lb. mussels 1 tsp. grated fresh lemon peel 1 package frozen peas

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In covered 2-quart saucepan, heat broth to boiling over high heat. Stir in saffron; cover and remove from heat. Meanwhile, in deep 12-inch skillet, 5- to 6-quart Dutch oven, or paella pan, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add chorizo and cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently. With slotted spoon, transfer chorizo to bowl; set aside. To drippings in skillet, add fennel, onion, and garlic, and cook about 4 minutes or until fennel softens slightly. Add half of tomatoes and 4 tablespoons parsley and cook 1 minute Add rice, stirring to coat well. Pour in warm broth; heat to boiling over high heat. Boil 3 minutes or until liquid begins to thicken slightly, stirring occasionally. Stir in sausage, shrimp, mussels, and lemon peel; heat until mixture boils around edge. Place skillet in oven and bake, uncovered, 12 minutes. Remove skillet from oven and stir mixture. Cover and bake 8 minutes longer. Remove skillet from oven; top rice mixture with peas. Cover skillet and let paella stand 5 minutes or until shrimp turn opaque throughout, mussels open, and rice is fully cooked. Discard any unopened mussels. Stir well; sprinkle with remaining tomatoes and parsley.
