Made this recipe for dinner last night and WOW what a delicious way to do seafood and pasta. I used gnocchi with it, but would have been better with linguine or angel hair, I think. No need to add too much salt (even with all the tomato) the herbs are enough flavor. Also, used olive oil in place of the butter and this was a delicious, low fat dish.
