    Excellent Recipe.

    I made it using a seafood medley mix from Costco which worked great. I also included a lot of the juice from the mix which really upped the flavor.

    I followed the advice of a previous poster and didn't add the seafood until 10 minutes left. Additionally, I used chicken thighs as recommended by another poster so no problem with dry chicken.

    I might add a touch less salt next time. It was a little salty but not overbearing.

    All in all, an excellent meal for not much effort.

    Love it! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
    I purchase a 5-gram jar of Spanish Saffron from Costco on line for $22. Saffron needs to be soak in liquid minimum of 2 hrs.
    I substitute a few ingredients, I used chicken tights w the bones instead of chicken breast, peas instead of celery, lobster instead of crabs, 2 cups of rice instead of one, 1/2 pd of shrimp instead of 1 pd. (I did not peeled and de-veined
    I season the chicken w a little of oil, s&p, brown the chicken and set aside, I cooked the rice for 15 minutes, add the chicken and let it cook for 5 min. then added all the seafood and let it cooked for additional 10 min.
