Simple and tasty. Nice combination of acid from the lemon and spice from the chili pepper. Easiest if you buy precook mixed seafood. Here I got a mix of calamari, mussels, and prawns.

  2. 250 glinguine
  3. 2 tbspolive oil
  4. 2garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  5. 1/2red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Here are the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta according to pack instructions. Al dente is best. Approx 8-9 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the garlic and chilli and cook for 30 secs-1 min until just turning golden. Pour in the wine, then leave to bubble until reduced by half.

  4. 4

    Stir the tomatoes into the pan and cook for 1-2 mins to soften. Add the seafood mix and continue to cook for 1-2 mins or until fully heated through.

  5. 5

    Remove the pan from the heat. Add the lemon juice. And add half of the roughly chopped parsley. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  6. 6

    Drain the cooked pasta, reserving about a cupful of the cooking water. Return the pasta to the empty pan and tip in the seafood and tomatoes mixture. Add a little of the pasta cooking water to loosen, then toss together until everything is well mixed, adding more water as needed.

  7. 7

    Divide between serving dishes. Grate a little parmesan over the pasta. Not too much – this isn't really supposed to have parmesan cheese. Sprinkle over the remaining chopped parsley. Serve with a lemon wedge to squeeze over.
