The ingredients that come together in this seafood linguine recipe make for a classic dish that you can prepare any night of the week for a seafood-loving crowd. It takes elements that are similar to the seafood dish cioppino but serves it over pasta rather than as a stew.
Lanie's seafood mixture includes a combination of shrimp, scallops, crab, and/or chunks of lobster. Good-quality imitation crab may be used as well, and you can skip the lobster and double up on other ingredients if your budget doesn't permit lobster for this linguine with seafood.
Chopped tomatoes, garlic, dry white wine, and fresh parsley make up the sauce. Toss the seafood sauce with linguine or similar pasta, such as spaghetti or angel hair.

Recipe Variations and Substitutions
You can vary the seafood you use in this dish really easily based on availability and preference. Crab, shrimp, or a can of lobster meat is great, but any combination of these ingredients will work. You can also double up on one ingredient versus another if you have preferences or aversions to consider.
Storage and Freezing
Leftovers of this seafood and pasta dish will keep in the refrigerator in an airtight sealed container for a couple of days. Reheat over medium-low heat in a saucepan, adding a little more tomato sauce or water if needed to keep the pasta from sticking to the pan.
Freezing is not recommended for this dish. Pasta such as linguine can be frozen, but you'd have to cook it just to al dente so that when you reheat it, it won't become mushy. Seafood doesn't typically freeze and reheat well without becoming rubbery or overcooked. That being said, you could freeze the sauce and add fresh seafood to it upon reheating if you like.
Do you put Parmesan on seafood pasta?
It's not necessarily customary to put Parmesan on a seafood dish such as this because it's believed that the cheese can overpower the flavors. That being said, taste is entirely personal and subjective so if you like it, go for it.
