Spicy Crab Marinara Pasta

Spicy Crab Marinara Pasta is a must for Christmas Eve’s Feast of the Seven Fishes dinner and a family favorite to be enjoyed any time of the year.  Just enough spicy heat and sweet crab meat, Spicy Crab Marinara Pasta is nonetheless easy to prepare and never fails to impress from its presentation to its rich and zesty taste. Choose a fun, fancifully-shaped pasta for this dish; we chose creste di gallo (cocks combs) but radiatore (radiators) or lumachine (small snails) would also work well to hold the zesty sauce and bits of crab meat. For a special dinner, start with Family-style Rustic Escarole Salad and move on to Spicy Crab Marinara Pasta, pairing both courses with a dry white wine or prosecco.

Chili Crab Pasta Sauce

Chili Crab Pasta Sauce is inspired by Chili Crab, the zesty Singapore favorite and one of the signature dishes of Singaporean cuisine. Our Chili Crab Pasta Sauce is just moderately hot; add an extra chili or two to turn up the heat. Chili Crab Pasta Sauce is best served over fettuccine, spaghetti or other long, strand type of either fresh or dried pasta or rice noodles.  Start out with a cool Greek Cucumber Tomato Salad, then move on to Chili Crab Pasta Sauce as the main course; better have some Sambal Oelek or Spicy Sichuan Chili Crisp at the table because some like it hot!
