Fettuccine is enhanced with marinara sauce and the natural juices of seafood. Choose the smallest clams and mussels, to cook this flavorful shellfish meal.
In a large heavy 4 to 5 quart pot or Dutch oven, heat the tomato sauce and wine to a simmer over medium heat.
Add the clams; cover pot and steam 3 minutes. Add the mussels; cover and steam 1 minute.
Stir in the shrimp; season with salt and pepper and red pepper flakes, if using; simmer until clams and mussels have opened and shrimp is cooked through, discarding any shellfish that fails to open.
Divide the pasta between warm bowls and top with shellfish and sauce.
