Cooking Instructions
Cook the Paccheri Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the paccheri pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Sauté the Seafood
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add Lobster and Shrimp
Add the lobster tail (cut into chunks) and jumbo shrimp to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and the lobster is cooked through.
Add Wine and Spices
Pour in the white wine and add the hot crushed pepper. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Incorporate Marinara Sauce
Add the grape tomatoes, marinara sauce, and fresh basil to the skillet. Stir well and let it cook for another 5 minutes to combine flavors.
Combine with Pasta
Toss the cooked paccheri pasta into the skillet. Mix thoroughly to coat the pasta with the sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
