Smoky Seafood Fideos

• 7 ounces bag of fideos, or broken angel hair pasta
• 1 medium Spanish onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, smashed
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 pinch cayenne
• one 14-ounce can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
• 1 nutmeg seed, passed over a micro plane 5 times
• 2 1/2 cups seafood stock
• 1 cup dry white wine
• 1/2 cup water or vegetable broth
• 1 bay leaf
• 12 shrimp
• 3 squid tubes, cut in to rings
• 12 clams
• 12 mussels
• 1/16 teaspoon ground saffron or a medium sized pinch of threads
• 3/4 cup frozen peas
• 1 lemon
• 3 tablespoons parsley, chopped

1. Coat a heavy pan in olive oil. Over medium/low heat, add fideos and saute until they become a warm brown color, about 6 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove them from the pan and set aside.
2. Reduce the heat add more olive oil to the pan, if needed. Add onion and saute for 5 minutes, until almost translucent. Add garlic and saute for another 3 minutes.
3. Add in the smoked paprika, oregano, and cayenne, and saute for another minute.
4. Increase the heat to medium and add tomatoes, shave in nutmeg, and bring to a simmer for 3 minutes.
5. Return the fideos to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, bring stock, wine, water and bay leaf to a boil in another pot, reduce to simmering, adding the seafood one species at a time and removing from the pan and reserving. Cook shrimp 2 to 3 minutes until just pink; squid 1 to 2 minutes until just prior to opaque; clams a maximum of 6 minutes, discarding unopened ones; mussels up to 4 minutes; discard unopened ones. Allow broth to return to a slow boil in between batches. Remove seafood and set aside.
7. Add the saffron to broth and let 'bloom' for 2 minutes. Turn the heat off of the broth.
8. Slowly add stock into the pot with the fideos, in 3 to 4 batches (like risotto). Let simmer with broth for about 20 minutes. When the pasta has reached desired consistency, add in the peas and seafood. Let steam for 2 minutes, covered.
9. Prior to serving squeeze the lemon over the top, and sprinkle with parsley.
