Pasta with mussels and shrimp
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Pasta with mussels and shrimp is a traditional southern Italian dish, typical of coastal regions, as well as Sicily and Sardinia. If you're unsure how best to cook and serve shrimp and mussels, take advantage of Italian chefs' expertise and prepare this exquisite pasta. Paired with a good white wine, it makes for a beautiful, elegant, and gourmet dinner. Here's the recipe for pasta with shrimp and mussels: 1. Drop the pasta (I used farfalle, but any type will work—spaghetti, for example, is also suitable) into boiling water and cook for 2 minutes less than the time indicated on the package. 2. Take a large skillet, heat olive oil in it. Add halved cherry tomatoes and garlic cloves, sauté over medium heat until the garlic turns golden. Then add the shrimp (which should be peeled, tails removed) and mussels. Cook for 2–3 minutes. 3. While the shrimp and mussels are cooking, finely chop parsley and rosemary. 4. Pour wine into the skillet. Add the chopped herbs. Simmer the seafood in the wine for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Then carefully transfer the seafood mixture into a bowl, leaving the sauce in the skillet. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce remaining in the skillet. Stir and cook for another 2 minutes. 5. Combine the pasta with the seafood and vegetables. Mix well. Congratulations—your pasta with mussels and shrimp is ready! :) All that's left is to pour white wine into glasses, plate the pasta in portions, and serve. The dish is now ready to be served.
