MUSSELS AND CLAMS WITH SPICY TOMATO BROTH



Mussels and Clams with Spicy Tomato Broth image

A spicy, brothy bowl of mussels and clams is at home in any season. Serve it with thick slices of crusty baguette, toasted and rubbed with raw garlic, for a sensational, simple meal any day of the week. This broth gets its heat from both fresh red peppers like Fresno or serrano chiles, and a dose of pinched red pepper flakes. You control the heat by what kind of pepper you choose - Fresno for subtle heat or serrano for a spicier edge. The wine, however, is not optional. Pinot grigio, both for cooking and drinking, is this broth's best bet.

Linguini with Clams, Mussels, Rock Shrimp and Calamari in Spicy Tomato Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 ounces extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 ounce garlic, chopped
1/2 ounce shallots, chopped
4 Manila clams
5 black mussels
2 ounces rock shrimp
1/2 ounce white wine
3 ounces spicy marinara sauce
1 ounce calamari
6 ounces linguini, cooked
1 ounce fresh basil
1 tablespoon bread crumbs

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.

Tips:

  • Prep the seafood: Clean mussels, clams, and shrimp thoroughly. Remove any beards or grit from the mussels and clams. Devein and peel the shrimp. Pat seafood dry with paper towels before cooking.
  • Use fresh seafood: The fresher the seafood, the better the dish will taste. Look for seafood that is firm to the touch and has a mild, briny smell.
  • Make sure the broth is flavorful: The broth is the foundation of this dish, so make sure it is packed with flavor. Use a combination of white wine, clam juice, and fish stock for a rich and savory broth.
  • Don't overcook the seafood: Seafood cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery. Cook the seafood until it is just opaque in the center.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately. The seafood will continue to cook in the hot broth, so it is important to serve it as soon as it is ready.

Conclusion:

This mussels, clams, and shrimp in spicy broth is a quick and easy seafood dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The spicy broth is flavorful and the seafood is cooked perfectly. Serve with crusty bread or rice for a complete meal.
