Perfect for Christmas eve, take a look at this previously posted pasta dish. Christmas eve, my family makes a lot of fish. La festa delle sette pesce, the feast of 7 fish is a tradition in many Italian homes on Christmas eve. We make 7 seafood dishes on Christmas eve.
This pasta dish is certainly one of them. It's definitely a favorite for my family and guests. Fresh is best, but if you don't have access to a fish market, frozen will do.
Seafood Medley is a mix of
Shrimps,
Calamari and
Scallops. I
lightly sauteed them in
Tomatoes, Garlic and
White Wine. The results were incredible! I served it over spaghetti, but you can serve it without if you are watching your carbs. Either way, it is sure to be a pleasing meal.
This meal took no time. The entire meal, with spaghetti was prepped and cooked in 10 minutes flat! I used frozen shell fish, so my prep was mostly done for me
: ) While the pasta cooked, i make the seafood.
I made this meal together with an old friend of mine, Luisa GangiDino. I met Luisa in the 3rd grade when she and her family came to America to live from Europe. My elementary school principal knew I spoke Italian, so they put Luisa and I together so that I could translate everything the teachers said. Imagine translating everything!
Our first day together, I can remember going into gym class with her and explaining the rules of dodgeball. We were together all the time. Here we are 30 plus years (I'm being vague and generous here) later and still friends.
