Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tbsp olive oil
1 lb chicken breast
2 tbsp minced garlic
1 medium onion, diced
1 cup arborio rice
1/2 tsp saffron
1/2 cup diced tomatoes
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken broth
1 red/green pepper cut into strips
1/2 cup artichoke hearts
1/2 cup peas
4 large shrimp, raw shell on
4-6 small clams and mussels

Steps:

Heat oil in large frying pan over medium heat. Add chicken pieces and saute until almost done. Add garlic and onions, and saute until soft. Add the rice and saffron, stirring to coat with oil, about one minute (tumeric can be used instead of saffron). Add tomatoes, wine and broth. Bring to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add pepper strips, artichoke hearts and peas. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add shrimp, clams and mussels and cook for 15 minutes or until rice is done. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.
