Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 lb linguine (or any other fav pasta)
2 (6 ounce) cans tuna fish (the albacore in water is the best, but the dark tuna is okay too)

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups spaghetti sauce (I enjoy either Paul Newman's or Classico's marinera or tomato and basil sauces)
2 garlic cloves (chopped)
1/2 cup parmigiano

Steps:

  • Cook pasta as directed on the box but don't drain until the sauce is done and your ready to serve!
  • Drain the water from the two cans of tuna and set aside.
  • Warm a large skillet over med-low with olive oil.

  • Add both cans of tuna to the skillet, and allow to brown stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon or similar tool (approx 2 min).
  • Add your spaghetti sauce to the skillet and fold the onions and tuna into the sauce so that it is evenly coated.
  • Once the sauce begins to bubble turn your flame down to low and cover, let simmer for 2min.
  • Drain pasta and return to pot, add the sauce from the skillet and the parmigiana cheese.
  • Bon Apetite!

IVAN'S MEGA FRUTTI DI MARE



Ivan's Mega Frutti Di Mare image

Awesome seafood linguine that's relatively quick and easy.

Provided by strmrdr23

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ (16 ounce) packages linguine pasta
1 cup olive oil, or as needed
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 (2 ounce) can anchovy fillets packed in olive oil, drained
1 (14.5 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 ½ pounds clams in shell, scrubbed
⅓ pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails left on
⅓ pound bay scallops
½ pound squid - tentacles and tubes, cleaned and cut into rings
salt to taste
ground black pepper
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 lemon, cut into wedges
1 tablespoon grated Manchego cheese
1 tablespoon julienned fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the linguine, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  • Heat a large skillet covered with about 1/4-inch of olive oil over low heat. Add garlic, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and anchovies; cook and stir until the anchovies melt into the oil, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the crushed tomatoes; increase the heat to medium, and bring to a simmer. Stir in the clams. Once they begin to open, arrange the shrimp in a single layer and allow to simmer. Flip the shrimp when they become pink on one side, about 2 minutes, then drop in the scallops and squid. Continue cooking until the shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 2 more minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning.
  • Toss the cooked pasta into the sauce. Garnish with a lemon wedge, Manchego cheese, and basil before serving.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later.
  • Use Fresh Seafood: For the best flavor, use fresh seafood whenever possible. If you can't find fresh seafood, frozen seafood is a good alternative.
  • Cook the Pasta Al Dente: Pasta should be cooked al dente, meaning it should be firm to the bite. This will help it hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the seafood, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the seafood from cooking evenly.
  • Season Generously: Season the seafood and pasta generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices and herbs to taste.
  • Add the Seafood at the End: Add the seafood to the pasta towards the end of cooking. This will help prevent the seafood from overcooking.
  • Garnish Before Serving: Garnish the pasta with fresh herbs, grated cheese, or lemon zest before serving.

Conclusion:

Pasta del mar is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its combination of fresh seafood, tender pasta, and flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
