Instructions
- Make the sauces before cooking the seafood and keep them at low heat.
- The seafood will all require different cooking methods. Mussels: Bring a large pot of water to the boil and add a steaming basket. Add the mussels to the steamer and steam for 4-5 minutes. If using whole mussels, steam until they open and discard any that don't.
- Calamari: Dredge in seasoned flour and fry in hot oil until crisp and golden, approximately 3-4 minutes. Do this in batches if your pot is small.
- Shrimp: Follow the recipe instructions for the shrimp.
- Lobster and fish: Drizzle the lobster tails and fish fillets with olive oil and season with salt, garlic powder and pepper. Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and sear the lobster, flesh-side down, for 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
- Grab your biggest platter then add the seafood. I prefer arranging the seafood in sections for an abundant appearance. Add bowls of sauce then garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges.
