Steps:
- Pour olive oil into a large pan over medium heat. Add garlic and crushed red pepper; cook until fragrant, 30 to 40 seconds. Pour in white wine and increase heat to medium-high. Let wine reduce by half, about 8 minutes. Add clam juice and reduce heat to medium-low. Pour in marinara, basil, and salt. Let simmer to let flavors marry, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Add shrimp, scallops, lobster, mussels, and clams to the sauce and cook until clams and mussels open, scallops are opaque, shrimp is pink, and lobster is red on the outside and opaque on the inside, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Toss linguine in sauce until it's thick enough to coat the noodles (it will still be a relatively thin sauce), about 3 minutes.
- Plate noodles and load up with seafood and sauce. Garnish with parsley, and serve immediately with Parmesan cheese.

FRUTTI DI MARE (MARINATED SEAFOOD & HOT RED CHILI PEPPERS)
This wonderful recipe is by Umberto Menghi, from his great Seafood Cookbook. We love seafood and this is one of our favorites. This dish is to die for, its sooo good. I must admit that I leave out the squid, it's a personal preference only. If you don't like heat much, just add 1/2 tsp of the red hot chili. This is a beautiful light meal, served with a simple green salad, your favorite organic bread and fruit.

Steps:
- If using the squid, clean the squid by pulling off the head and pulling out the entrails. Remove the guill from the squid and discard. Lay the squid on a cutting board and with a sharp knife, scape off the membrane.
- Rinse under cold running water, cut off the tentacles and reserve. Make sure to cut off the beak-like mouth. Chop the tentacles and body into 1/2 inch rounds, pat dry and set aside until needed.
- In a pot saute the onion in oil until soft and transparent.
- Add the squid to the pot and saute for 3 - 4 minutes, then add the mussels, shrimps and scallops, cover and steam for 5 - 6 minutes, until the mussels open.
- Please, discard any mussels that do not open -- they are bad.
- Next, add the white wine, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, salt and pepper to the pot and simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes, then transfer to a bowl.
- Add the red hot chili pepper, scallions and dill to a small bowl and gently mix together.
- Put your large bowl of seafood in the fride to marinate for 4 hours.
- When ready remove bowl from fridge, using a slotted spoon, transfer the seafood onto a plate or platter.
- Blanch the tomato for 20 seconds, in rapidly boiling water, then plunge into ice cold water. Peel, seed and julienne the tomato.
- Garnish the seafood platter with tomato and serve immediately.
- Bon Appetite.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
- Choose Fresh Seafood: The fresher the seafood, the better your dish will taste. Look for seafood that is brightly colored and has a mild, briny smell.

- Use a Variety of Vegetables: This recipe calls for red peppers, zucchini, and onions, but you can use any vegetables that you like. Some other good options include broccoli, asparagus, and mushrooms.
- Add Some Herbs and Spices: Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of the seafood and vegetables. Some good options include garlic, thyme, basil, and oregano.
