Let's Cook

Step 1.
Heat the olive oil in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the langoustines and fry until they start to color, about 2–3 minutes.

Add the finely chopped onion and crushed garlic to the pan. Cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts to soften.

Add the cleaned mussels, clams, and diced squid to the pan. Continue to simmer until the rice is just cooked and the shellfish have opened, about 10 minutes. Discard any unopened mussels or clams.
