PREP
Calamari – Slice.
Mussels – Cover in cold water and then drain. If you didn’t get your mussels debearded, debeard them using the help of this article.
Garlic / Shallots / Parsley – Prep as directed. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
MAKE
Bring a saucepan of water to boil. Salt generously and add linguine. Cook until al dente, tender but not soggy. Drain.
Heat a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil and then garlic, shallots, anchovy paste, and capers to heated oil. Saute for ~2 minutes.
Add diced tomatoes and wine, and saute for another 3 to 4 minutes.
Add mussels to pan. Cover with a lid and cook for ~5 minutes. Give the pan a shake before removing lid and folding in calamari. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, until squid is cooked through. Toss with linguine and finish with lemon juice and then season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley.
Enjoy your Italian seafood pasta (preferably with a glass of white wine!).
