Begin by ricing the cauliflower: remove the outer leaves and cut the cauliflower into florets. Use a food processor to pulse the florets into rice-sized pieces.
Prep the vegetables: finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, dice the red bell pepper, and chop the tomato.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the garlic, red bell pepper, and tomato, and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
Add the paprika and saffron threads, stirring to blend the spices with the vegetables.
Pour in the fish stock and bring to a simmer. Let it reduce slightly for about 5 minutes.
While the stock reduces, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in another pan. Sauté the shrimp, mussels, and squid for 3-4 minutes or until cooked through. Set aside.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet with the vegetable mixture, stirring well to combine. Cover the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the cauliflower to absorb the flavors.
Once the cauliflower rice is tender, return the cooked seafood to the skillet, stirring to incorporate.
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice over the dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
