Eventhough the sauce was flavourful, I found by adding the can of tomato paste to be much too heavy. I had to add over a cup of liquid b/c it was just too thick.

I made this for dinner tonight and was pleasantly surprised. My family and I really loved it (some of us are picky eaters!) While making the sauce I discovered it was too spicy. What I wound up doing was adding more crushed tomato and some half and half. I probably added a cup of half and half in total to cool it down. Normally I wouldn’t add dairy to a dish with fish, but I knew without it the sauce would be way too spicy. If I make this again, I’d probably still add a little half and half and definitely less red pepper. I also did not use clams. I used shrimp and scallops and it was wonderful. I can also see this being delicious with king crab or regular crabmeat. I did not put cheese on top of it (I don’t think seafood and cheese mix) but instead sprinkled some chopped parsley on top of each serving. I used thin spaghetti but if I make it again I’d maybe try a fettuccine to hold the sauce better.

Very good! I cut recipe in half but did not have crushed tomatoes, so used canned diced (about 3/4 of a 28oz can), which we really enjoyed. As a result of using diced tomatoes, I did use the specified amount of tomato paste (based on 1/2 recipe) & also used closer to 1/2 cup of white wine for flavour and sauce consistency. We used a combo of shrimp, scallops and fresh chunks of salmon (no clams on hand!). Also used the amount of garlic called for based on 8, cuz we love it! Very tasty and loved the spicy flavour that the red pepper flakes added!

Good recipe. I will make this again. I did follow others directions by lowering the tomato paste and the amount of Chili flakes. a definite seafood pleaser!

I made this for a Valentine's dinner. It was Yummy. The taste of the sauce was so nice. It was the first time I have every steamed clams. They seemed to be a bit tough or chewy to me. Maybe I need more practice with them. I also added scallops. Good flavour all around and very easy to make.

This was good, but I will change a few things the next time.... I'll add less red pepper flakes, more shrimp, and try canned clams. Otherwise, it was pretty easy and a big hit on a Friday in Lent! I did use Dreamfields, a low carb pasta, and no one noticed!

Terrific recipe! We all enjoyed this dinner. I left out the red pepper, and I decreased the paste to 1/2 can. I also added more wine (about 3/4 c total), and I added a little clam juice to the sauce at the end. It made just enough to feed 6 adults, it may be 8 technical servings, but I guess we had larger portions. Will definitely make it again.

only buy fresh seafood, otherwise it affects the taste of the dish! unfortunately, the sauce was nothing special.

I only had scallops to use in this dish, but it was fantastic! I will definitely make this again. I garnished with grated mozzarella cheese and parsley flakes (for presentation). I will submit a photo.

Excellent! After reading reviews I did reduce tomato paste by half, although I don't think it would have mattered much to use all. I was prepared to use scallops, however because they turned to mush while cooking them (bought the wrong size) I used extra shrimp and canned clams. Loved the sweet taste of the sauce, and leftovers were equally good.

I liked how the sauce mixed well with the seafood and pasta. I would use less white wine next time because it was a little too strong in flavor. I loved the hint of spiciness and I loved the smell. I would definitely try this one again. Thank you for the recipe!

I made this dish as a celebration dinner for me and my honey for our first night in our new home. It was absolutely wonderful, and knocked his socks off. I stepped out of character and actually followed the recipe to the letter, and it turned out just perfectly. This will definetely be one of my new favorite dishes to make. Bravo and thanks for the great recipe!!!

Fantastic!!!! I served it for our Christmas dinner. My Italian mother-in-law LOVED it (as did the whole family). I will definately make this many times more. I left out the pepper flakes, cut back on the tomato paste and used canned whole baby clams and it worked out great. Made ALOT! Yummy!

I doubled this recipe and used half the red pepper, no sugar and paste depends on the brand of tomatoes you buy. I thought it was WAY too hot. I was so embarassed. My Mother literally choked on it. My lips with tingling. The men in the family liked it. But I won't make it again.

This was good. I will make again soon. Now I am addicted. I couldn't find fresh clams so I bought canned. It was so much easier. Hubby loved it too. Thanks so much for sharing. Made some garlic break and a good bottle of Chardonnay. I cut the tomato paste in half as others recommended. I think it would have been too much if you put the whole amount. Added throughout the simmering more wine. Would add next time more crushed tomatoes to make it saucier.

Very good! I agree that the additional tomato paste is unnecessary. Forgot to pick up clams but it was great with just the shrimp and scallops. Very nice tomato sauce base that I could see using with other fish (in pasta).
