CHORIZO LINGUINI WITH MUSSELS AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Chorizo -- In a very large saute pot heat to medium / medium high and add the olive oil and chorizo. Sauté until the chorizo is done and make sure to break it up as it cooks. It should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
• Vegetables -- After you remove the chorizo, reserve just 1 teaspoon of the drippings to cook your vegetables inches The rest, please discard. Add the shallots, garlic and fennel and cook 3-4 minutes, just until slightly tender and has absorbed the flavors from the chorizo.
• Sauce -- Then to the same pot, add the wine to deglaze and cook just a minute. Then add in the chicken broth, tomatoes, the chorizo, salt and pepper and simmer 3-4 minutes.
• Seafood -- To the rich tomato broth, add the mussels (don't forget, if the mussels are not closed, tap on the counter, if they don't close -- toss them out, they are bad), and cook until half way about 4 minutes. Then add the shrimp on top but make sure they are submerged in the broth, and cook another 3-4 minutes until they turn pink and begin to curl. Don't overcook.
• Pasta -- As the seafood broth cooks, cook the pasta according to package directions.
• Finish -- Once the pasta is done, drain and toss with the seafood broth, cilantro (save some for a garnish), parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper (to taste).
• NOTE: Go easy on the salt, mussels have a salty sea taste as does the chicken broth and tomato sauce, so taste as you go. You can always add more at the end of cooking.
• Serve -- In a large bowl so you get plenty of the sauce - Good crusty grilled bread, topped with a little store bought pesto or with my anchovy butter to dip with the mussels and shrimp. Absolutely Heavenly!
• Garnish with some fresh lemon wedges or lemon slices if you like.
