Frutti De Mare

A delicious Italian meal perfect for any sea food lover. Tons of different sea foods tossed together with linguine in a light tomato sauce. You can substitute the seafood listed below with any of your favorite kinds. This is one of my favorite meals, and I hope you can enjoy it as well. 

 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Red pepper flakes (to taste)
1/2 Cup dry white wine
12 Littleneck Clams 
10 ounces Linguine

12 Black mussels 
8 shrimp shelled and de-veined (frozen or fresh) 
1/2 lb Sea scallops

1/4 chopped parsley

5. Remove clams from skillet and set aside, add in tomato sauce and season with salt. Add in the haddock and scallops and cook for about 5 minutes, until scallops turned white and haddock is flaking apart

  2. Oh wow, this dish looks amazing. It would be a nice dish to prepare for my daughter when she comes home from school. I feel like I could reach into the computer with a fork and eat it up.
