In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Cook the rice
Add Bomba rice to the skillet, stirring to coat in the oil. Pour in fish stock and bring to a simmer. Add saffron and season with salt and pepper.
Add the seafood
Once the rice is simmering, add shrimp, mussels, and squid rings. Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes until seafood is cooked through and rice is tender.
Finish and garnish
Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
