Seafood Paella
Ingredients
Heat 8 cups of fish stock with 1 tsp of saffron in a pot.
In a large paella pan or saucepan heat 1/2 cup of olive oil with 2 medium diced onions until translucent. Add 1 chopped bell pepper and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Add a 28 oz can of diced tomatoes and 6 cloves of diced garlic and simmer for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour in 4 cups of the rice and stir until it's all been covered by the tomato mixture.
