Arrange mussels and shrimp alternately around the edge of dish, sticking mussels upright into the rice mixture and shrimp head down and tail toward center (they do not need to be completely covered with liquid). Arrange fish pieces in an even layer in center, on top of the rice mixture. Cover and microwave on high until most of the fish has turned opaque throughout and mussels open, 5 to 8 minutes more.
