CLAM CHOWDER MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a small roasting pan with cooking spray.
• Combine ground beef, 1/2 can chowder, onion, eggs, celery, bread crumbs, parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl; mix until smooth. Mound meatloaf mixture in the prepared roasting pan. Cover pan with aluminum foil.

LINGUINE WITH SHRIMP AND CLAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Open clams, drain water and save, set clams aside. Let water stand to settle and sand or debris, then carefully pour into a measuring cup. Discard sand. Add water to liquid to give you 1 cup of liquid. Put aside.
• Shell and devein shrimp, keep shells. Chop shrimp into small pieces.
• In a saucepot, cook linguine as per instructions on package; drain. Return to pot and keep warm.
• In the meantime, in a 2 quart saucepan over high heat, heat clam liquid, shrimp shells, and sherry to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover pot and simmer for 5 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon, remove shrimp shells and discard. Pour mixture into a bowl and set aside.
• Into the same saucepan add butter olive oil, and garlic; cook over medium-low heat until garlic is lightly brown.
• Stir in clam liquid mixture, clams, and shrimp. Heat to boiling over high heat, stirring occasionally.
• Add parsley and cook 1 minute.
• Add salt to taste, serve over linguine.

SHRIMP, CLAMS, AND SCALLOPS PASTA

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook the onion and garlic until tender. Mix in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, wine, sugar, salt, oregano, red pepper, and bay leaf. Simmer uncovered 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Place spaghetti in the pot, cook 8 to 10 minutes, until al dente, and drain.
• Place the clams in a pot fitted with a steamer basket over boiling water, and steam until opened. Discard clams that do not open. Stir into the sauce.
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the shrimp and scallops 2 minutes, or until opaque. Mix in garlic. Stir into the sauce. Serve sauce with seafood over the cooked spaghetti, and top with Parmesan cheese.

SEAFOOD PASTA WITH SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS (AND GARLIC!)

Steps:

• Soak the scallops for 10 minutes in a brine solution (3 Tbsp Kosher salt in 16 oz water.)
• Remove after 10 minutes and place on a rack to dry.
• Next, put a large pot of well salted water on to boil for the pasta. Once the pasta goes in, set a timer for 7 minutes before the pasta will be ready (according to package instructions.)
• Make sure the scallops are dry. If they are not, pat them dry with a paper towel. When the timer goes off, put a large cast iron pan on high heat and add the extra virgin olive oil.
• When the pan and oil are very hot, add the scallops and sear them for about 1 1/2 minutes before adding the shrimp, garlic, and parsley.
• Cook for another 2 minutes, then turn the scallops and shrimp and cook for a further 1 1/2 minutes. Next, add the wine, scraping the bottom of the pan; turn the heat down just to keep it warm.
• Add the butter and stir to melt. Add some freshly ground black pepper, if desired, then taste the sauce or a piece of seafood and add salt if needed.
• Drain the pasta, which should be ready, but reserve a cup or so of pasta water. You will only need this pasta water if you want to add some after mixing everything together. Add the pasta directly to the seafood sauce in the pan.
• Stir gently to incorporate all the ingredients together. Add some of the reserved pasta water, if desired, then top with a twist of lemon in the pan.
• Serve immediately as this seafood pasta dish is best piping hot. Don't forget some crusty bread to mop up the buttery garlic and wine sauce at the end!

CLAM AND SHRIMP SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet and add garlic and onions. Reserve a couple of tablespoons of the green part of the onion for garnish. Saute until nearly done. Drain Clams well into a measuring cup. You should get 1/4 to 1/2 cup of juice. Add clam juice, chicken broth and wine to the skillet. Add italian seasonings and bring to a rolling boil. Boil until sauce has reduced somewhat approximately 5 minutes, reduce heat to simmer. Continue to cook while pasta is cooking. If sauce is not to desired thickness you can add some parmesan cheese to help thicken the sauce or a little cornstarch mixture. I like to add about1/4 cup parmesan to the sauce. Sauce should be somewhat thin. When pasta has approximately 4 minutes until it is completely finished, add in the clams and the shrimp. Cook only until shrimp turns pink. Cover and set aside.
• PASTA:
• Prepare pasta according to directions. When finished rinsed lightly. You will want the pasta to retain some heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter which has been broken into smaller pieces, 2 tablespoons Italian seasonings and 1 cup of parmesan cheese. Blend well and cover.
• SERVE:.
• Divide pasta onto 4 dinner plates and top with sauce mixture, topping with parmesan cheese and a bit of reserved green onions.
• NOTES: If you like a lot of sauce with your pasta you can increase the sauce mixture to desired amount.
