  1.  Marinate seafood and meat with Swanson No Added MSG Concentrated Chicken Stock helps to enhance the umami taste and remove freezer burn taste from frozen pack.
  2. Saffron is paella’s signature ingredient which is available in hypermarkets, yet it is equally  delicious without it.
  3. Paprika, portion of seafood and other ingredients can be adjusted according to own preference.
  4. Can prepare lemon wedges for squeezing over to serve.
  5. Bomba rice is best known for its ability to absorb moisture which gives paella a rich flavour. Normal rice is a fine substitute but may need to adjust chicken broth portion accordingly.
