Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
  • Parsley, finely chopped
  • ½ cup of dry white wine
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • 4-5 San Marzano tomatoes (with the skin removed)
  • 1 pound of linguine
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon of capers, rinsed
  • ½ pound of squid finely sliced (tubes and tentacles)
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 pound of clams
  • 1 pound of mussels
  • 1 small red onion, finely diced
Process
  1. Wash the clams and mussels in cold water, removing any dirt from the shells and removing the small beard-like part from the mussel shell.
  2. In a large pan, add a few tablespoons of water and a splash of white wine. Add the shellfish and cover with a lid; cook for 10-15 minutes or until the shellfish open. Remove the shellfish to a large bowl.
  3. In a large pan, add the garlic, onion, and extra virgin olive oil. Saute over medium heat and season with salt and black pepper. Add the squid and capers to the pan. Add the white wine and cook down for 5-10 minutes. Add the tomatoes to the pan (crushing them with your hands to release the juice and break down the tomatoes). Add salt and black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the shellfish and their cooking liquid to the large pan with all of the cooked ingredients. Add the parsley.
  4. Add the cooked linguine to the pan with the fish condiment. Add fresh extra virgin olive oil and stir and mix well (over a low heat).
