Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 large onion, chopped

8 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped

1 cup dry white wine

1, 14.5 ounce can chopped tomatoes

1 ½ cups heavy cream

1 heaping tablespoon tomato paste

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

¾ pound sea scallops

½ pound squid, rings and tentacles

¾ cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more served on the side for sprinkling

1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, cut in half

1 pound linguini, cooked al dente to package directions

2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet with sides. Sauté the onions and garlic over medium high heat until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the white wine and let cook for 3-4 minutes more until wine reduces by about half.

Add the canned tomatoes, heavy cream, tomato paste, salt, and pepper to the pan. Cook at a low boil for 5-7 more minutes, stirring frequently, allowing the sauce to thicken.

Gradually stir in the parmesan cheese and add the seafood and fresh tomatoes. Continue cooking for 3-4 more minutes until a luscious creamy sauce has formed.

Toss the hot pasta directly into the sauce to coat. Serve hot garnished with basil and with more grated parmesan on the side. YUM!
