Seafood Marinara

SEAFOOD MARINARA

Steps:

• Place the mussels and/or clams in a saucepan and pour in the wine. Cover tightly and cook over a high heat for a few minutes, shaking the pan occasionally until all the shellfish have opened - discard any that do not.
• Strain through a sieve reserving 2/3 cup of the cooking water - not the bottom part where the grit is. Remove the meat from the shells and reserve.
• Meanwhile cook the spaghetti according to pack instructions until al dente.
• While the spaghetti is cooking heat the oil in a heavy based frying pan, add the garlic and chili and saute for 20 secs. Tip in the shrimp and saute for a further minute.
• Pour in the tomato sauce and the reserved cooking liquor. Bring to a gentle simmer, then stir in the cooked shellfish, basil and parsley. Season to taste and allow to just warm through.
• When the pasta is cooked, drain and return to the pan. Pour in the seafood sauce and fold together until well combined. Serve at once.
