Pappardelle with Mussels and Prawns

Pappardelle are certainly a traditional national dish, even if often combined with flavors of land rather than sea. How many times have you ever thought "what can I prepare for dinner?". Here... Pappardelle is an easy dish to prepare and that goes well with everything, both with fish and meat condiments. I wanted to prepare a plate of pappardelle with the scent of the sea, seasoning them with the strong flavor of mussels and the delicate one of shrimps. Here is the recipe.

INGREDIENTS

400 Gr Pappardelle 

250 Gr Mussels

250 Gr Shrimp

500 Gr Cherry tomatoes

1 Clove of garlic

Extra virgin olive oil to taste

Parsley stalks

1/2 glass White wine

Salt to taste

1 Lt Water

1 Clove of garlic

GUIDELINES

pappardelle and condiment

Take a pan and put a little oil, a clove of crushed garlic and a few branches of parsley cut into small pieces. Sauté the garlic a little until it becomes golden. After a few minutes, pour the cherry tomatoes into the pan and brown them for a few minutes. Then add salt and 1/2 glass of white wine. Then add the mussels (previously cleaned) and shrimp and cook a little. Meanwhile, put the pot for pasta and cook your pappardelle always tasting them until the pasta is al dente. Once al dente, drain your pappardelle and pour them into the pan with the sauce. Sauté the pappardelle and serve hot.
