Directions

Cook linguini 8-10 minutes; drain well. Rinse and mix in vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Place garlic lemon butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.

When butter begins to sizzle, add shrimp, scallops and clams; saute for 5 minutes.

Place Marinara sauce in the pan and bring sauce to a boil. Flip the mixture to ensure even heating of all the ingredients. Add linguini and toss until noodles are well covered with sauce. Continue to cook for additional 2 minutes.

Pour pasta into a large bowl and sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese and parsley to garnish.

Garlic Lemon Butter:
Place butter in mixing bowl; cream with electric mixer. Add garlic and lemon juice; continue mixing until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

Marinara Sauce:
In large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat until hot. Add onions. Cook, stirring frequently until onions start to become limp and are clear, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add remaining ingredients to saucepan; stir well.

Bring sauce to boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low, simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Once cooked, remove bay leaf.
