Surf N Turf Paella Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat some olive oil and lightly cook the garlic. Add the onions and peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are nearly translucent, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Add the cuttlefish and tomatoes and mix well. Add the chorizo, paprika, white pepper, bay leaf and 8 grams salt. Stir well and let simmer until the cuttlefish softens and the liquid reduces, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to sit.
• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C (350 degrees F). Spread the chicken and rabbit on a baking sheet and roast until cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes.
• In a paella pan over medium heat, combine the green oil, 4 cups of the vegetable-cuttlefish mixture (save the remaining for another use) and the rice. Stir so that the rice picks up the flavor of all the ingredients.
• Add the chicken and rabbit, the saffron and the remaining teaspoon salt to the paella pan; mix well. Add the hot fish stock, stir, and cook over high heat, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Add the clams, mussels, langoustines and prawns, placing them decoratively on top of the dish. Transfer to the oven and bake until the stock is completely absorbed and the seafood is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle the paella with parsley. Serve with quarters of lemon.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the chicken, flank steak and shrimp with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken until cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a platter and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
• Grill the flank steak to the desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium. Add it to the platter with the chicken.
• Grill the shrimp until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Add them to the platter.
• Grill the scallions until brown, about 3 minutes per side. Add them to the platter.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes, garlic and onions. Cook until the onions are golden, about 8 minutes. Add the oregano, cumin, bouillon, sugar and chiles. Stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup water to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the chiles are soft, 2 minutes. Let the mixture cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a blender, add 1 cup water and blend until smooth. Strain the sauce into a medium bowl.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same saucepan over medium heat. Return the sauce to the pan and simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place 2 molcajetes (see Cook's Note) in the oven and heat them for 10 minutes (or use 2 small to medium cast-iron skillets). Using oven mitts, remove them from the oven and carefully transfer them to a heatproof surface (be careful, as the molcajetes get extremely hot).
• Bring the sauce to a boil. Cut the chicken and flank steak into 3/4-inch-wide strips. Arrange the chicken and steak strips, shrimp, scallions and cheese slices around the edges of the heated molcajetes. Pour the boiling sauce into the center. Serve very hot, with tortillas to make tacos.
