This is my husband's very favorite dish at Carrabba's. However, they've recently changed the menu and it isn't on there anymore. Luckily, they'll still let you order any items no longer on the menu! I've made this at home a couple of times, but it's difficult for me to find all the fresh seafood (since Dallas isn't near an ocean:) ** Preparation, though, is really easy ** |
1 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/4 cup onion, finely diced
1/4 cup green onion, chopped
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
3 prawns
2 ounces squid rings (or Sword Fish)
1 1/2 ounces cod
5 mussels, cooked, shell on
1/2 ounce baby clams
1/2 ounce baby shrimp
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon sweet basil
1/8 teaspoon thyme
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
2 ounces white wine
2 ounces heavy cream or 2 ounces tomato sauce
salt & pepper
4 ounces linguine, Cooked
Heat oil in a frying pan. Add garlic, chilies and onions, saute until softened, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add the prawns, mussels and squid, saute 2 minutes and then add remaining seafood. Saute 1 minute and add herbs and wine. Bring wine to rolling simmer and add cream or tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper, heat to a simmer, add parsley and desired amount of hot cooked linguine. Toss to coat pasta well. Serve immediately. Makes 1 serving
NOTE: If you can use fresh herbs in this dish it really makes a difference. You may substitute whatever seafood is in season or available in your area to keep the cost down
