Finely chop the pepper and onion and place them in a wide paella pan with olive oil.
Saute the vegetables over medium heat for 5 minutes, so the rice can later spread evenly across the bottom.
Add the rice, saffron, and hot fish stock, spreading everything over the surface of the pan.
Arrange the seafood on top and cook over medium heat for 18 minutes, without stirring the rice.
Turn off the heat and rest the paella for 8 minutes, so the seafood releases its juices back.
Portion with a serving spoon without dragging the dried rice from the edge into the center.
Add lemon wedges to the plate, so the seafood aroma stays bright.
💡 Tip: Do not stir after adding the rice; the browned bottom of the pan is the character of paella.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Bring to the table with lemon wedges.
