Spaghetti With Calamari Scallops Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Fill the large pot with salted water (at least 6 quarts water with 1 tablespoon salt), and heat to a boil.
• To prepare the seafood: Cut the calamari bodies, including the tentacles, into 1/2-inch rings. Pull off the side muscle or "foot" from the scallops and discard. Remove the shells, tails, and digestive veins from the shrimp; rinse and pat dry.
• Pour the olive oil into the skillet, set it over medium-high heat, scatter in the sliced garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to sizzle and color, about 1 to 2 minutes. Dump in the cherry tomatoes, sprinkle on the teaspoon salt and the peperoncino, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring and tossing tomatoes in the pan, until softened and sizzling in their juices but still intact.
• Start cooking the pasta first and the seafood right after, so they are ready at the same time. Drop the spaghetti into the boiling water, stir, and return the water to a boil.
• As it cooks, scatter the calamari rings and tentacles in the pan with the tomatoes, and get them sizzling over medium-high heat. Let the pieces cook for a minute or two, then toss in the scallops, and spread them out to heat and start sizzling quickly. After they've cooked for a couple of minutes, toss in the shrimp, ladle in a cup of boiling pasta water, stir the seafood and sauce together, bring to a steady simmer, and cook for 2 or 3 minutes, just until the shrimp turn pink and begin to curl.
• As soon as the spaghetti is barely al dente, lift it from the pot, drain briefly, and drop into the skillet. Toss the pasta and the simmering sauce together for a minute or two, until the spaghetti is nicely coated with sauce and perfectly al dente, and the seafood is distributed throughout the pasta. Turn off the heat, sprinkle on the basil and parsley, and drizzle on another 2 tablespoons olive oil. Toss well, heap the spaghetti into warm bowls, giving each portion plenty of seafood, and serve immediately.

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.
