Delicious paella! You could add additional crab, scallops and mussels if you would like. Place them into the casserole dish during step #5.

1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-size pieces
2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups frozen green peas
1 pinch saffron
5 cups boiling chicken broth
1 pound small shrimp - peeled and deveined

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Dredge the chicken in flour and salt and pepper. In a large skillet, fry the chicken in 1/4 cup olive oil until brown and crispy. Set aside.
In a large skillet, brown chorizo sausage. Set aside.
Place 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet and fry onion and garlic until onions are tender. Add chopped tomatoes and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add rice to the skillet and mix well. This glazes the rice.
