Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
First, clean the shrimp, leaving the head and tail intact, and remove the intestine from the back of the shrimp using a toothpick or any method you prefer.
Step 2
Take a large deep frying pan, if you don't have a paella pan, and sauté the seafood in it one type at a time for about two minutes each, then remove them back to a bowl.
Step 3
Next, sauté the rice in the same oil with the added paella spice for about two minutes, and don't forget to boil some water while you're sautéing.
Step 4
After the rice has taken on a slight golden color, pour the boiled water into the pan, reduce the heat, and temporarily forget about the rice.
Step 5
When you notice that the water has reduced a bit, you can layer the mussels, squid, and cuttlefish into the rice one by one. Let it cook for another five minutes.
Step 6
After that, add the pepper and shrimp to the pan and leave it on the stove for about 5-7 minutes. After this time, remove the pan from the heat, garnish the paella with chopped cilantro and four lime wedges.
