  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cups tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup clam broth

  • Make the Tuscan Hot Oil In a small bowl, combine the olive oil with the parsley, crushed red pepper and sea salt.
  • Make the Seafood Pasta In a large deep skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Add the onion and garlic and cook over moderately high heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the tomato sauce, clam broth, seasonings and 1-1/2 tablespoons of the Tuscan Hot Oil and bring to a boil. Add the shrimp, mussels and cook, uncovered, until the shells are just beginning to open and the shrimp start to curl, about 2 minutes. Add the scallops and fish and cook until the fish is nearly cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Add the calamari and cook until opaque, about 1 minute.
  • Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the bucatini until al dente. Drain the pasta well.
  • Transfer the pasta to a large bowl and toss with the seafood and its sauce. Serve the pasta, passing the remaining Tuscan Hot Oil at the table for drizzling.
