Pasta Fra Diavolo Recipes

GRILLED SEAFOOD PASTA FRA DIAVOLO

Steps:

• For the chili oil: Combine the oil and crushed red pepper flakes in a heavy small saucepan. Cook over low heat until a thermometer inserted into the oil registers 180 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Strain the oil into a heatproof container.
• For the spicy tomato sauce: Heat a large nonstick grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the tomatoes and chile with 2 teaspoons of the chili oil and sprinkle with the salt. Grill until charred and softened, 4 minutes per side. Transfer the tomatoes to a bowl. Coarsely chop the chile, then add to the bowl with the tomatoes.
• For the pasta: Bring a large saucepan filled with salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the lobster tails and cook until the shells turn red and the meat is opaque, 4 minutes. Transfer the tails to a cutting board. Continue to boil the water and add the linguine. Cook until the pasta has begun to soften but is still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 6 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water.
• While the pasta is cooking, prepare the seafood. Gently cut through the top of the lobster shells using scissors to remove the tail meat, then slice each tail in half lengthwise. Transfer to a large bowl and add the shrimp. Drizzle over 1 1/2 tablespoons of the chili oil and 1 teaspoon salt and toss to coat.
• Heat a large nonstick grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the lobster tails and shrimp until cooked through, 4 minutes per side. Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl. Chop the lobster into 2-inch pieces and combine with the shrimp.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the chili oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the spicy tomato sauce and white wine and bring to a boil. Add the clams and cook, covered, until they open, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Add the pasta and reserved cooking water to the pan along with the Parmesan and toss to coat. Stir in the parsley, butter, lemon zest and salt and black pepper to taste. Add in the shrimp and lobster and drizzle with the remaining chili oil.

• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook pasta for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
• In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over high heat. Add the shrimp and scallops. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently, or until the shrimp turn pink.

7 FISHES FRA DIAVOLO PASTA

Steps:

• Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and heat until fragrant. Pour in the panko and shake into an even layer. Sprinkle in the lemon zest and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until toasted and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Scrape the breadcrumbs into a bowl. Stir in the parsley and set aside for plating. Reserve the skillet.
• While the breadcrumbs are cooking, place a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the remaining olive oil and heat until fragrant. Add the shallot and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add in the garlic and crushed red pepper. Cook, stirring, just until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the anchovy paste and fry, stirring, for 1 minute more. Increase the heat to medium high. Add 1 cup of the white wine and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the clams, cover and steam for 2 minutes. Add the mussels, cover again and steam just until the shellfish open, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the cooked shellfish to a medium bowl with a slotted spoon and set aside for plating. Reduce the heat to medium and add the tomato puree to the pan. Use the remaining 1/4 cup white wine to swish around any tomato puree clinging to the can (just like Nonna would). Add it to the sauce, along with the dried oregano. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions for al dente.
• While the pasta cooks, sprinkle salt and black pepper on all sides of the scallops, shrimp and halibut. Place the reserved skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat until shimmering. Add the halibut and scallops, spacing them apart (so they sear, rather than steam). Cook, without disturbing, until deeply golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the scallops and cook the other side for 1 minute. Remove to a plate and set aside. Flip the halibut and cook until seared on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the shrimp to the skillet, spacing them around the halibut, and cook until the shrimp are opaque and lightly seared, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from the heat and squeeze the lemon juice over the shrimp and halibut. Remove to the plate and set aside.
• To finish the sauce, add the calamari and simmer for 1 minute over medium heat. Lift the pasta with tongs from the boiling water into the sauce. Toss until evenly coated. Add the cooked shellfish and any liquid that collected in the bowl. Toss to thoroughly combine.
• To serve, plate the pasta first. Sprinkle generously with the breadcrumbs. Top with the seared scallops, shrimp and halibut. Serve immediately.

CALAMARI FRA DIAVOLO OVER LINGUINE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil of medium-high heat.
• While the water is boiling, make the sauce: In a separate large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and ½ teaspoon salt and sauté for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent. Add the garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes and sauté for 1 minute, until the garlic is fragrant.
• Add the tomato paste and mix until evenly combined with the aromatics. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomato paste has darkened and thickened. It is okay if some of the paste begins to stick to the bottom of the pot. Deglaze with the red wine and clam juice, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer for 4-6 minutes, until the liquid is reduced by half.
• Add the whole peeled tomatoes and, using a potato masher, break up the tomatoes into bite-sized chunks. Bring the sauce to a simmer.
• Add the calamari and stir to coat in the sauce. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 25 minutes, until the calamari is very tender and the sauce has thickened. Season with the remaining teaspoon of salt, plus more to taste.
• When the calamari has 6-8 minutes cooking time left, drop the linguine into the boiling water and until just shy of al dente. Reserve ¼ cup (60 ml) of the pasta water.
• Using tongs, transfer the linguine directly to the calamari sauce. Add the reserved pasta water and toss well to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the linguine is al dente and well coated in the sauce. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and half of the parsley.
• Transfer the pasta to a large serving platter and garnish with remaining parsley and red pepper flakes.
• Enjoy!
