Ingredients

Instructions

  1. If using fresh mussels, scrub and debeard them. Peel and devein the shrimp if needed, and clean the calamari tubes. Cut the calamari into rings.

  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining the pasta.

  3. In a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until fragrant and the onion turns translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the mixed seafood to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until the shrimp turn pink and the mussels start to open.

  5. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and white wine, stirring well to combine. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

  6. Add the cooked linguine to the skillet with the seafood sauce. Toss everything together, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce and help it coat the pasta evenly.

  7. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the pasta pescatora and give it one final toss. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve hot with a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese on top.
