Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat ¼ cup oil in a skillet and add onion, shallots and garlic. Cook, stirring, about 3 minutes without browning. Add wine, tomatoes, tarr-agon, pepper flakes, salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Bring sauce to boil; add cream and stir.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, bring 10 cups of water to boil. Add pasta and cook, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add broccoli and when the water returns to a boil cook about 4 minutes. Scoop out and reserve about ⅔ cup water.

  4. Step 4

    As pasta and broccoli cook, cut monkfish into 1½-inch cubes. Or, if sea scallops are used and they are very large, cut in half. Add remaining tablespoon of oil to a large skillet and add monkfish or scallops. Cook briefly, stirring, about 1 minute and add sauce. Cook about 3 minutes and add shrimp. Cook about 1 minute. Remove from heat.

  5. Step 5

    Drain pasta and broccoli and add them to sauce. Add reserved Y cup water. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

This was easy and delicious. Personally I like my pasta extra saucy and would double it.

Had some fresh broccoli and frozen shrimp. Found this recipe and the results were quick, easy, and delightful!

Where is the fish sauce?

It's a pasta sauce made with fish, not Asian fish sauce.

This was easy and delicious. Personally I like my pasta extra saucy and would double it.
