Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup frozen peppers and onions (6 oz)
1/4 lb kielbasa, quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (not low-fat)
2 cups long-grain minute rice
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 1/4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (10 fl oz)
1/8 teaspoon crumbled saffron thread
20 frozen cleaned medium raw shrimp
1 1/4 lbs mussels (cleaned and scrubbed) or 1 1/4 lbs hard-shelled clams (cleaned and scrubbed)
1/2 cup small pimento stuffed olive
1 cup frozen peas
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until just smoking, then sauté garlic and frozen onions and peppers, stirring, until garlic and onions are golden, about 2 minutes.
2. Add kielbasa and cook, stirring, until kielbasa is lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
3. Add rice, wine, broth, saffron, and shrimp and cook, covered and undisturbed, over high heat until most of liquid is absorbed and shrimp are cooked through, about 6 minutes.
4. Stir in cockles, peas, and olives and cook, covered, until cockles open wide, 2 to 4 minutes. (Discard any cockles that remain unopened after 4 minutes.)
5. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, until all liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
