Stir in minced garlic and sliced chorizo; cook until chorizo is browned, about 3-4 minutes.

Add diced tomatoes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

Stir in the rice, ensuring it is well coated with the mixture.

Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low.

Add saffron, paprika, salt, and black pepper; stir to combine.

Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Add chicken pieces and shrimp on top of the rice; cover and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until shrimp is pink and opaque.

Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes, covered.

Fluff the rice with a fork and fold in green peas before serving.
