Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ tablespoons crushed red pepper
1 ½ cups Chardonnay white wine
1 cup clam juice
6 cups marinara sauce
8 leaves fresh basil, coarsely chopped
1 pinch salt
1 (16 ounce) package linguine pasta
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
⅓ pound scallops
3 whole lobster tails, shelled, cleaned, and chopped
24 medium mussels mussels, cleaned and debearded
24 medium (blank)s littleneck clams, scrubbed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Pour olive oil into a large pan over medium heat. Add garlic and crushed red pepper; cook until fragrant, 30 to 40 seconds. Pour in white wine and increase heat to medium-high. Let wine reduce by half, about 8 minutes. Add clam juice and reduce heat to medium-low. Pour in marinara, basil, and salt. Let simmer to let flavors marry, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Add shrimp, scallops, lobster, mussels, and clams to the sauce and cook until clams and mussels open, scallops are opaque, shrimp is pink, and lobster is red on the outside and opaque on the inside, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Toss linguine in sauce until it's thick enough to coat the noodles (it will still be a relatively thin sauce), about 3 minutes.
  • Plate noodles and load up with seafood and sauce. Garnish with parsley, and serve immediately with Parmesan cheese.

LINGUINE AI FRUTTI DI MARE (LINGUINE WITH FRUIT OF THE SEA)



Linguine Ai Frutti Di Mare (Linguine With Fruit of the Sea) image

This is possibly my most favorite food. It is spicy, succulent, and comforting - down to the very last linguine noodle! I've had many versions of this, and sometimes leave out the mussels, since I don't always like their taste/texture. You can also find canned clams, but you should really wash them thoroughly, as they will be very salty!

IVAN'S MEGA FRUTTI DI MARE



Ivan's Mega Frutti Di Mare image

Awesome seafood linguine that's relatively quick and easy.

Provided by strmrdr23

Categories     Italian Recipes

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ (16 ounce) packages linguine pasta
1 cup olive oil, or as needed
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 (2 ounce) can anchovy fillets packed in olive oil, drained
1 (14.5 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 ½ pounds clams in shell, scrubbed
⅓ pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails left on
⅓ pound bay scallops
½ pound squid - tentacles and tubes, cleaned and cut into rings
salt to taste
ground black pepper
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 lemon, cut into wedges
1 tablespoon grated Manchego cheese
1 tablespoon julienned fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the linguine, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  • Heat a large skillet covered with about 1/4-inch of olive oil over low heat. Add garlic, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and anchovies; cook and stir until the anchovies melt into the oil, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the crushed tomatoes; increase the heat to medium, and bring to a simmer. Stir in the clams. Once they begin to open, arrange the shrimp in a single layer and allow to simmer. Flip the shrimp when they become pink on one side, about 2 minutes, then drop in the scallops and squid. Continue cooking until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 2 more minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning.
  • Toss the cooked pasta into the sauce. Garnish with a lemon wedge, Manchego cheese, and basil before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh seafood. The fresher the seafood, the better the sauce will taste. If you can, buy seafood that was caught the same day you plan to make the sauce.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. Seafood cooks quickly, so it's important to not overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of seafood. Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of seafood in your sauce. This will add flavor and texture.
  • Use a good quality white wine. The white wine you use in your sauce should be of good quality. A cheap, acidic wine will ruin the flavor of the sauce.
  • Reduce the sauce until it's thick and flavorful. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the seafood and pasta, but not so thick that it's difficult to stir.
  • Serve the sauce over pasta or rice. Frutti di mare sauce is traditionally served over pasta or rice. However, you can also serve it over other dishes, such as grilled fish or chicken.

Conclusion:

Frutti di mare sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used to make a variety of dishes. It's perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal, or for a special occasion dinner. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and authentic Frutti di mare sauce at home.
