Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    Rinse the calamari, shrimp, and mussels under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sausage

    Remove the casing from the Italian sausage and cut it into bite-sized pieces.

Marinade

  1. 3

    Make the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley.

  2. 4

    Marinate the Seafood

    Place the calamari, shrimp, and mussels in the bowl with the marinade. Toss well to coat and let it sit for at least 15 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the sausage pieces. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. 6

    Cook the Seafood

    In the same skillet, add the marinated calamari, shrimp, and mussels. Cook for about 5-10 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and the mussels open.

  3. 7

    Combine and Serve

    Add the cooked sausage back to the skillet with the seafood. Stir to combine and heat through for another 2 minutes. Serve hot.
