Frutti di Mare
While in Rome we had this fantastic dinner at a Seafood restaurant called Ristorante Sapore di Mare after walking back from the Pantheon. I am a Seafood lover, and my favorite is Frutti Di Mare in red Marinara Sauce.
Seafood as Shrimp, Mussels and Calamari are suited best for this dish. Whole cream for white sauce an be added, another option is a red Marinara sauce.
The meal in the Restaurant in Rome was a slightly different version, with Sherry wine, and it was quite tasty.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are just done, about 2 to 3 minutes. At the end add the sherry, lemon juice, and parsley.
