Step 1

Preheat Big Green Egg to 450 degrees. Lightly grease your paella pan. I sprayed mine with avocado oil spray. We use the Big Green Egg 4 quart/3.8 liter Stir-Fry/Paella grill pan.

Step 2

Put paella pan on hot surface, add olive oil, and then the onions, celery & garlic. Sauté until the veggies start to brown (3-4 minutes).

Step 3

Add saffron & water mixture, creole seasoning and bay leaves. Sauté for another minute or two.

Step 4

Now add the tomatoes and chicken stock. Mix well.

Step 5

Stir in the rice to combine. Bring to a low boil. Close the lid to the green egg to allow the rice to absorb the liquid. This will take around 20-25 minutes. Check every 5-8 minutes to make sure it remains on a low boil. If after 20-25 minutes your rice looks like it is not tender enough, and most of the liquid is already absorbed, add another 1/2 cup of chicken broth.

Step 6

Just before all the liquid is absorbed into the rice, add the Worcestershire, hot sauce, frozen peas, and prepared chicken and sausage. Give it a quick stir to combine. Now, add your mussels on top. Cook for 2 minutes, and then add your shrimp.

Step 7

Continue monitoring until all liquid is absorbed. This should only take a couple of minutes at this point in the cooking process. Thus, giving your mussels and shrimp just enough time to cook, but not over cook..

Step 8

Remove from heat. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Step 9

Serve in a shallow bowl with rough chopped parsley & lemon slices, for garnish.
