Arroz con Mariscos shellfish rice


I'm a Fan Too

Description:

The fishing grounds off the Peruvian Pacific coast are blessed with a great diversity of seafood. The meeting of two ocean currents - the southern Humbloldt which brings cold water from the seas off the north Chile, and the El Niño bringing warmer water from the north - provides a rich marine environment where 400 species of shellfish thrive. Peruvian cooks put them to good use in another of our delicious seafood recipes
