- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 100 grams of green beans, trimmed and cut into small pieces

- 1 ½ cups chicken broth
- 1 ½ cups seafood broth
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Preparation
- Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet or paella pan. Add the chicken and sauté until cooked through. Then add the garlic and paprika and cook for a minute and a half.
- Add the tomato sauce, broccoli and beans, then sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until green but still crisp.
- Add the chicken broth and raise the heat to medium-high, bring to a boil, stir in the rice and clams and cook for 10 minutes, adjusting the heat slightly if the rice mixture is about to boil.
- Lower the heat to medium-low, add the saffron, mussels and shrimp and cook for another 6-8 minutes until the mussels open, the shrimp are pink and opaque, and the rice has absorbed most of the liquid.
- Remove from the heat and cover with clean, dry paper towels for 10 minutes, this will crisp the rice on the bottom of the pan.
