Paella On Spaghetti Squash - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 spaghetti squash (3 lb)
3 tablespoons butter
1 chorizo sausage, sliced (115 g)
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon saffron
1/2 cup white wine
19 ounces diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 lb fresh mussels, cleaned
1 cup frozen green pea, thawed
3/4 lb haddock or 3/4 lb cod, diced
1 lb frozen medium shrimp, skinned
1/4 cup Italian parsley, chopped
salt and pepper

Preparation

On a working plan, poke the squash with a fork on all its surface. Cook in the microwave at high power for about 15 minutes (5 minutes per pound) or until tender when touching with a finger. The squash must be al dente. Let rest 10 minutes. Cut in half, remove the seeds and undo the flesh with a fork. In a bowl, mix the flesh in butter. Add salt and pepper. Set aside in a warm place.
In a large skillet, brown the sausage, bell pepper and onion in oil. Add garlic and spices. Keep cooking 1 minute. Add salt and pepper. Deglaze with wine. Add tomatoes, chicken stock, and bring to boil. Let simmer about 3 minutes. Add mussels and peas. Cook about 2 minutes. Add fish and shrimps. Cover and cook 3 to 4 minutes stirring frequently until mussels are open and shrimps are cooked. Sprinkle with parsley. Adjust seasoning.
Serve on a bed of spaghetti squash.
