1 lb penne pasta, cooked
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup minced shallot (about 10)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh garlic (about 4 cloves)

  • Add tomatoes and cook for another minute.
  • Add mussels and shrimp, season again with salt and pepper, and cook for just two minutes.
  • Add wine, bring to a simmer, and cover.
  • Cook until mussel shells all open, about 4 minutes or so.
  • Add crabmeat and onions; season again with salt and pepper; cook for just one minute.
  • Add pasta and toss; cook until pasta is heated through, only about one minute.
  • Remove from heat; add cheese and basil and lightly toss, then place mixture in a large serving bowl.
  • Garnish with a drizzle of truffle oil and serve.

This recipe was a disaster. The pasta was mushy and the seafood was overcooked.

I thought the sauce was a little bland. I added some red pepper flakes and it was much better.
