Ingredients

• 400 grams Linguine pasta
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 200 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 120 milliliters Dry white wine
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoons Red chili flakes
• 500 grams Mussels
• 200 grams Shelled prawns
• 200 grams Scallops
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 50 grams Grated parmesan (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine until al dente, as per the package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Finely chop the garlic and add it to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

Step 4

Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

Step 5

Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 6

Rinse and clean the mussels, discarding any that do not close when tapped. Add the mussels to the skillet, cover, and cook for 4-5 minutes until they open. Discard any mussels that remain closed.

Step 7

Add the prawns and scallops to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring gently, until the seafood is cooked through and opaque.

Step 8

Season the sauce with salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes. Add the lemon juice and stir in half of the parsley.

Step 9

Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to coat it in the sauce. If the sauce seems dry, add the reserved pasta water a little at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.

Step 10

Serve the Linguine Della Mare immediately, garnished with the remaining parsley and grated parmesan, if desired.
