- 4. Add the tomatoes into the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes have reduced and slightly caramelized, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- 5. Add the rice to the unit and stir to coat with tomato mixture. Add the broth and saffron and stir together well. Cover and reduce the temperature to 300°F. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- 6. Add the chicken pieces to the cooking pot by nestling them in the rice; simmer, covered for an additional 12 to 15 minutes.
- 7. While chicken is simmering, season shrimp with remaining salt and pepper. Add to unit with the clams and simmer, covered, for an additional 8 to 12 minutes, until clamshells have opened.
- 8. Stir in the parsley, peas and lemon juice.
- 9. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
