Method:

Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-based saucepan or paella pan.
Sauté; the onion, garlic and pepper until soft and fragrant.
Add the chicken and sauté; until lightly browned.
Add the tomatoes and stir. Sprinkle the chilli powder and paprika on top, reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring continuously.
Add the rice, stir through and simmer for another five minutes. Add the stock and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered until the rice is cooked and most of the liquid has been absorbed. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Shell the prawns and remove the vein. Add the prawns, sherry and peas to the saucepan and simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes until the prawns are pink and just done.
Arrange the mussels on top of the rice mixture, cover with a tight-fitting lid and simmer for two minutes or until the mussels are heated through.
Serve the paella with lemon wedges and garnish with chopped dill or parsley.
Prepare a salad with lettuce leaves, baby carrots, onion rings and tomato, drizzle with salad dressing and serve with the paella.
