I've already picked out a wine, have my plan for home made pasta sauce, etc. Just need to know what kind of seafood goes best with pasta?
Date is a pescatarian, so meat and chicken are out.
don't cook something you have never cooked before. make something you cant go wrong with or screw up. something that will be great almost no matter what. I would choose grilled salmon, pasta, and some salad.
We grow tomatoes & basil. One of my favorite summer pastas is linguine with grilled shrimp with tomatoes & basil.
I just marinate some peeled shrimp in EVOO, garlic, salt & pepper for a bit. In a pot I dice up some tomatoes, mix a bit of garlic, salt, pepper and a small amount of red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar. The tomatoes aren’t cooked. After I grill the shrimp and cook the pasta I just mix it all together and sprinkle a lot of fresh basil on it. Super easy & good.
