Step 1
Boil calamarata in salted water until al dente, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup pasta water before draining.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add garlic, cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 3
Add lobster and squid. Sear without stirring for 2 minutes until squid firms and lobster begins to color.
Step 4
Pour white wine into the skillet and scrape up browned bits. Simmer 3 minutes until wine reduces by half.
Step 5
Add cooked pasta and 0.5 cup pasta water to the skillet. Toss constantly for 2 minutes to emulsify the sauce.
Step 6
Remove from heat. Stir in butter until melted and glossy. Finish with parsley, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately.
