Shrimp and Scallops Paella combines paella rice with veggies, shrimp, scallops, and saffron – the spice that makes it unique. We make this on our outdoor grill using a paella pan, key to getting that dark crust on the bottom that makes it SO good!
Mike and I traveled to Spain and Portugal in early 2015, and experienced our first ever PAELLA while there. Mike couldn’t get enough of it, and ordered it almost everywhere he could get it. They normally made it with some type of seafood, and a variety of vegetables. We are true foodies, and while I’m a little slower to try new things, Mike was eating all the seafood (even some of which we didn’t recognize). The wine was absolutely divine, and the bread. The BREAD!
Shrimp and Scallops Paella is one dish that I usually prepare on our outdoor grill, mostly because of the size of the pan. I purchased two of these paella pans
The Easiest Seafood Paella Recipe With Shrimp And Scallops
On amazon, so I could make two batches at once for a larger group. Our Texas weather also allows for us to grill outside almost all year long. But you can totally make paella on your stove top, even using a regular saucepan.
When we cook paella on our outside grill, I put everything in a pan to take it outside. The photo on the right is the saffron. You need only a teaspoon for this recipe.
The first photo below was taken right after the chicken broth was poured into the paella. We covered it with foil and let it simmer for about 25 minutes before adding the seafood (photo on the right). Then we covered it back up with foil and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes. Four pounds of seafood is a lot so the pan was heaping over.

Paella is pronounced “puh-yay-a”. One of the fun parts of making paella is saying it. Over and over again. Mike and I love to really emphasize the YAY part. In turn, our boys love to roll their eyes at us. Which makes it even more fun to say. (You get the picture.)
All this paella talk is really making me miss our trip to Spain and Portugal. We had the best time. And the food was…well, exceptional.
