Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil spaghetti in salted water until al dente, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup pasta water before draining.

  2. Step 2

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add garlic and red pepper flakes, cook 30 seconds until fragrant.

  3. Step 3

    Add seafood to the pan. Cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until shrimp just starts to turn opaque.

  4. Step 4

    Pour white wine into the pan. Let it sizzle for 1 minute, then add crushed tomatoes.

  5. Step 5

    Simmer 3–4 minutes until mussels and clams open and shrimp are fully opaque. Discard any unopened shells.

  6. Step 6

    Add cooked spaghetti to the skillet. Toss with 0.5 cup reserved pasta water until saucy. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
