1 can (14-ounce) baby clams

2 boneless, trimmed and skinned chicken breasts, cut into chunks
1/2 Chorizo sausage, cut into chunks
2 cups Basmati rice
3 cups water or chicken stock
1 medium carrot, diced
1 stalk celery, diced

1 medium red pepper, cut in 1/2-inch
4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons saffron
2 ounces Madeira wine or sweet sherry
2 tomatoes, diced
16 black olives, pitted and halfed

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

  1. In a large, deep, flat pan, put the rice and water (or stock). Cover and bake in a 350 degrees to 400 degrees oven until almost all the water is absorbed.

  2. In a sauté pan, melt the butter and sauté the diced carrot, celery and onion until the vegetables are soft and the onions are translucent. Remove from the heat and set aside.

  3. Remove the rice pan from the oven. Mix in the sautéd vegetables, the shrimps, clams, fish fillets, chicken, sausages, artichoke hearts, red pepper strips and garlic.

  4. Stir in the lemon juice, saffron and Madeira wine and arrange from the mussels around the outsided edge of the pan.

  5. Sprinkle the surface with the diced tomato and halved black olives, cover and return to the oven until the mussels open and the rice, fish and chicken are cooked through. The rice should be dry, not mushy.

  6. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve on large plates arranging the mussels around the edge of the plates. Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges.
