Heat olive oil in a large paella pan over medium heat until shimmering.

Add chicken and rabbit pieces, cooking until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.

Stir in sliced chorizo and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.

Add chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

Incorporate diced bell peppers and tomatoes, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.

Sprinkle in paprika and saffron, stirring to combine.

Add rice, stirring to coat with the mixture, about 2 minutes.

Pour in broth and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.

Simmer without stirring for 15 minutes, allowing rice to absorb liquid.

Arrange prawns, mussels, and squid on top of the rice, pressing them in gently.

Cover with a lid or foil and cook for another 10-12 minutes until seafood is cooked through.

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

Garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges before serving.
