About

This is a great dish to serve to guests on a special occasion. A seafood paella always looks spectacular and a bed of scented rice is the perfect way to display a selection of Mariscos (seafood). This particular paella contains a magnificent combination of squid, prawns, mussels and clams as well as spicy chorizo and succulent vegetables.
