Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat the oil in a casserole large enough to hold all the seafood comfortably. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft.

  2. Step 2

    Add the tomatoes with their juice, parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes and salt. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, rinse the shrimp. De-beard and scrub the mussels and scrub the clams. Rinse well and set aside.

  4. Step 4

    Bring four quarts cold salted water to boil and cook the percatelli. Meanwhile, cook the clams and mussels in the tomato sauce for five minutes with the lid on. Add the shrimp and cook for two minutes longer.

  5. Step 5

    Drain the percatelli. Transfer it to a large heated serving bowl and pour the sauce and seafood on top. Serve immediately.

Shellfish took longer than 5 min. to open. Next time wait till clams and mussels open, take them out, then add shrimp for 2-3 min. I used 6 plum tomatoes and a few T. paste. Finish with more fresh parsley and or basil. Delicious!
