Fish and saffron is a combination i really love. Easy and quick dish.

This dish was lovely. Very rich but something I would serve to company. Not difficult either. I used a veggie bouillon instead of clam juice/lobster stock which seemed to work just fine.

This was delicious! We cut back the cayenne to 3/4 teaspoon and found it to be plenty. We only had 1/2 teaspoon of saffron left in the house, so that's what we used. We left everything else the same and it was so good! We make this every time we have enough lobster shells to make lobster stock.
