Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Heat broth or water and add saffron strands. Let steep while preparing the other ingredients.

- Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
Notes
STORAGE - Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350-degree oven, microwave, or sauté pan.
SERVE WITH - This one-pan meal gives you everything you need. However, a hunk of crusty bread is perfect for mopping up all the juices. A side salad is refreshing, and if you are looking for more carbs, serve it with your favorite rice or pasta.
