👨🍳 Instrucciones
- 1
In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- 2
Add minced garlic and ají de color (paprika). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- 3
Add the mixed seafood to the skillet. If using raw seafood like shrimp or mussels, cook until just done. If using pre-cooked seafood, heat through for 2-3 minutes.
- 4
Stir in most of the chopped fresh parsley, reserving some for garnish. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Adjust seasoning carefully, as seafood can be naturally salty. - 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Whisking vigorously incorporates air, making the tortilla lighter. - 6
Pour the egg mixture over the seafood in the skillet. Stir gently to distribute the seafood evenly.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Ensure the seafood is not clumped together. - 7
Cook over medium-low heat, uncovered, until the edges start to set and the bottom is lightly golden, about 8-10 minutes. You can gently lift the edges to check.

To flip the tortilla, place a large plate or a clean lid over the skillet. Carefully invert the skillet so the tortilla lands on the plate/lid. Slide the tortilla back into the skillet to cook the other side.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: This step requires practice! Be confident and swift. - 9
Cook the second side for another 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. The center should be set but still moist.
