In a saute pan, melt the butter and sauteed the diced carrot, celery and onion until the vegetables are soft and the onions are translucent.
Remove from the heat and set aside.
Remove the rice pan from the oven. Mix in the sauteed vegetable, the shrimps, clams, fish fillets, chicken, sausages, artichoke hearts, red pepper strips and garlic. Stir in the lemon juice, saffron and Madeira and arrange from the mussels around the outside edge of the pan.
