Ingredients

• 400 g spaghetti
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 4 garlic cloves
• 1 tsp red chili flakes
• 400 g canned diced tomatoes
• 100 ml dry white wine
• 300 g large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 300 g mussels, cleaned and debearded
• 200 g squid, sliced into rings
• 3 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
• 1 lemon, zested and juiced
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the rest and set spaghetti aside.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and red chili flakes, cooking for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.

Step 3

Pour the white wine into the skillet and let it simmer for 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate.

Step 4

Add the canned diced tomatoes to the skillet and stir to combine. Season with salt and black pepper. Let the mixture cook for 5-7 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.

Step 5

Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the mussels to the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the mussels begin to open.

Step 6

Add the shrimp and squid rings to the skillet. Stir gently and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and the squid is tender. Discard any mussels that do not open.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cooked spaghetti. Toss well to coat the pasta in the sauce. If the mixture seems dry, add reserved pasta water a few tablespoons at a time until the desired consistency is reached.

Step 8

Sprinkle the chopped parsley, lemon zest, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the dish. Toss again to evenly distribute the flavors.

Step 9

Serve immediately in warmed bowls with extra parsley and a lemon wedge on the side for garnish if desired.
