Shrimp And Clams In Tomato Sauce With Shell Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Peel shrimp and place skin, heads, and tails into a large saucepan. Fill pan with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and let simmer, about 45 minutes.
• Combine tomatoes and 1/2 the parsley in a blender; puree until smooth.
• Heat olive oil in a separate pan over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and chile pepper; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant but not browned, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Pour pureed tomato mixture into the pan with the peppers. Add water, tomato paste, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well; add paprika. Let sauce simmer on low to medium heat until juices have reduced.
• Strain shrimp shells from the water. Bring water back to a boil and add spaghetti. Cook spaghetti, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water and drain the rest.
• In the meantime, add shrimp to the tomato sauce. Add the reserved water, stir well, and cook until shrimp is pink, about 3 minutes. Plate spaghetti and spoon the sauce on top; garnish with the remaining parsley.

Steps:

• Open clams, drain water and save, set clams aside. Let water stand to settle and sand or debris, then carefully pour into a measuring cup. Discard sand. Add water to liquid to give you 1 cup of liquid. Put aside.
• Shell and devein shrimp, keep shells. Chop shrimp into small pieces.
• In a saucepot, cook linguine as per instructions on package; drain. Return to pot and keep warm.
• In the meantime, in a 2 quart saucepan over high heat, heat clam liquid, shrimp shells, and sherry to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover pot and simmer for 5 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon, remove shrimp shells and discard. Pour mixture into a bowl and set aside.
• Into the same saucepan add butter olive oil, and garlic; cook over medium-low heat until garlic is lightly brown.
• Stir in clam liquid mixture, clams, and shrimp. Heat to boiling over high heat, stirring occasionally.
• Add parsley and cook 1 minute.
• Add salt to taste, serve over linguine.

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil. Add garlic and shallots, and saute until brown. Add the clams, mussels, and rock shrimp. When shells start to open, add the white wine. Reduce to half its volume, then add the marinara and calamari. Heat up the pasta (in salted boiling water) then add to the seafood. Allow pasta to cook in the sauce for a minute, then toss in the basil and bread crumbs. Serve in a deep pasta bowl immediately.

Steps:

• Rinse the clams in several changes of water and scrub with a small brush, such as a toothbrush. Discard any that are open or that have cracked shells.
• Place the wine in a large, lidded pan that will accommodate all of the clams (a wok with a lid works well). Bring to a boil and reduce by half. Add the clams, cover and cook over high heat, shaking the pan from time to time, for 2 to 3 minutes, until the clams open. Remove from the heat. Discard any clams that have not opened.
• Set a strainer over a bowl, line with cheesecloth and drain the clams. Set the liquid and the clams aside in separate bowls. You can keep the clams in the shell or remove them, whichever is most convenient for serving (it's prettiest with the clams in the shell).
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, wide, lidded skillet or casserole and add the shallots. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 3 minutes, and add the garlic and red pepper flakes or chile de arbol. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds to a minute, and add the tomatoes and juice, the sugar, orange zest, thyme, saffron, and the liquid from the clams. Add salt and pepper to taste, bring to a simmer over medium heat, reduce the heat and simmer 20 to 25 minutes, stirring often, until the mixture has cooked down and is very fragrant. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Stir the clams into the tomato sauce and heat through, stirring. Add the parsley or cilantro, stir again, and serve in wide soup bowls. Drizzle a little olive oil and a few drops of lemon juice over each serving if you wish

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook the onion and garlic until tender. Mix in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, wine, sugar, salt, oregano, red pepper, and bay leaf. Simmer uncovered 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Place spaghetti in the pot, cook 8 to 10 minutes, until al dente, and drain.
• Place the clams in a pot fitted with a steamer basket over boiling water, and steam until opened. Discard clams that do not open. Stir into the sauce.
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the shrimp and scallops 2 minutes, or until opaque. Mix in garlic. Stir into the sauce. Serve sauce with seafood over the cooked spaghetti, and top with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the shrimp, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a dish and set aside. Discard any excess liquid in the pan.
• Add the remaining 6 tablespoons oil and the garlic cloves to the same pan and cook over medium-low, turning the garlic a couple of times until light gold and fragrant, taking care not to burn them, about 4 minutes. Add the fennel seeds and red-pepper flakes, stir and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium and add the cherry tomatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt.
• Cook the tomatoes, stirring occasionally, until they release their juices and get saucy, 25 to 30 minutes. While the tomatoes cook, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil for the pasta. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the shrimp with any juices to the tomatoes to reheat for a couple of minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning.
• Set the pasta pot next to the saucepan and use tongs to transfer the spaghetti to the tomatoes and shrimp. The starchy water clinging to the spaghetti will make for a tasty and silky sauce. (You can drain the spaghetti, if you prefer. If you do, reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water to add as needed for a silky sauce.) Remove the pan from the heat, add the basil and toss well. Season with black pepper to taste and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat.
• Add in onion, garlic, red pepper flakes and oregano; saute for about 3 minutes.
• Add in the chopped tomatoes with juice, clam juice (add in the clams later) and about 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley and anchovy paste; stir to combine, then cook covered about 20 minutes.
• Uncover and simmer for another 25-30 minutes, over medium-low heat stirring occasionally until the sauce has thickened (simmer uncovered).
• Add in the reserved clams and uncooked shrimp; simmer until the shrimp is just cooked through (about 3 minutes).
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Add in cooked pasta; toss to combine and warm.
• Transfer to a large bowl and sprinkle with more chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese.
