What you will need:
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped garlic
1 cup grated tomatoes or tomato pulp
1/4 pound cod fillet, or other firm white-fleshed fish, cut in cubes
4 whole squid bodies, cleaned and cut into rings
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 3/4 cups fish or vegetable broth, more as needed
1 pinch saffron
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 1/2 cups Bomba, Valenciano or Vialone Nano rice
8 mussels, cleaned
8 large shrimp, peeled
How to make it:
1. Make the sofrito. Heat a 12-inch paella pan over medium-high heat. Add 3 tablespoons oil, then the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the grated tomatoes and cook, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes have lost most of their moisture and the sofrito is reduced to about one-fourth cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and place the sofrito in a small bowl. Wipe the pan.
2. Return the pan to medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the remaining oil, then the cod and squid. Sear the fish, stirring frequently, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to medium and add the sofrito back to the pan. Cook, stirring the sofrito with the fish to blend the flavors, for 3 minutes. Add the wine, stirring to remove any bits of flavoring from the bottom of the pan. Cook until the wine is reduced by half, about 1 minute.
