Puerto Rican Style Seafood Paella

Puerto Rican Style Seafood Paella is a traditional Latin dish that combines seafood with a variety of vegetables and saffron-infused rice. This dish is a staple in many Latin American households and is enjoyed during special occasions or weekend meals. The dish typically consists of shrimp, scallops, squid, mussels, clams, and sometimes lobster, all cooked in a large skillet with sofrito, onions, bell peppers, and garlic. The seafood is then mixed together with the rice, which has been slow-cooked with chicken broth, saffron, and vegetables such as tomatoes, peas, and carrots. The result is a flavorful and aromatic dish that is both filling and satisfying. Seafood paella is also a good source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins and minerals.
