Lemon wedges and spring of fresh parsley, to garnish
 
 
In a large paella pan , heat 3 tablespoons oil. Add shrimp and cook, stirring, 2 to 3 minutes, then remove and set aside.
Add monkfish to pan and cook a few minutes or until lightly browned all over. Season with salt. Remove and set aside.
Add more oil to pan, if necessary. Stir in paprika and cook 30 to 60 seconds, then add tomatoes. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add stock and bring to boil.
Using a mortar and pestle, pound garlic, parsley and saffron together. Stir in a little hot stock, then stir into pan and boil 2 minutes. Add spaghettini , mussels and claims and boil until pasta has absorbed most of the stock and is just tender.
