To prepare paella, pieces of meat such as chicken, pork or rabbit and seafood such as clams, shrimps, mussels, crayfish and squid are sauted in olive oil with onions, garlic and herbs and removed from the pan. Rice, tomatoes, saffron and stock are simmered together, the meats and seafood mixed in and the dish is garnished with peas, peppers and other vegetables.Traditional paellas are made out of doors over a wood fire.
