Seafood Spaghetti Baked In Paper (Spaghetti Al Cartoccio)

  1. Blanch the tomatoes in boiling water for a minute, then peel off the skins, remove the seeds with a spoon, and chop the flesh into cubes. Set aside.
  2. Rinse the clams and soak them in a bowl of cold water for about an hour to expel any sand.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet and, over very high heat, cook calamari rings for 1 minute. Remove from heat, season with salt, and set aside. Turn heat down to low, and add the garlic, shrimp, and clams. Toss to combine, then add the tomatoes and white wine and season with chile flakes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil and let the liquid reduce. After a few minutes, when the clams open and the prawns are cooked, remove them and set aside with the calamari. Continue cooking the sauce for another 5 minutes.
  4. Take the pan off the heat and return the seafood back to the sauce. Add parsley.
  5. Meanwhile, heat a large pot of water until it boils. Add a hefty pinch of salt and parboil the spaghetti for 5 minutes. Drain the pasta (reserving some of the cooking water) and add it to the sauce, tossing to coat.
  6. Place the spaghetti in baking paper or aluminum foil packages, distributing the seafood evenly and adding a ladle of sauce and, if needed, some of the pasta cooking water. Fold up the paper so that steam won't escape and place on a baking tray (alternatively, make the packages directly on the baking tray so you don't have to move them). Bake for 5 to 7 minutes at 350u0b0 F. Serve the packets immediately, allowing guests to open them up at the table for a nice surprise.
