Italian Seafood Recipes
With the country's long coastline as well as many lakes, Italians have a wide variety of seafood to choose from. A visit to an Italian fish market will reveal fish and shellfish of every description, many unknown outside of Italy. Italians tend to prepare their seafood very simply, without a lot of elaborate sauces. Shellfish are often simply grilled or fried, although many frequently turn up in pasta sauces, salads, and risotto.
This is a traditional Sicilian dish using fresh sardines that are stuffed, rolled and baked. Prepared in this manner, the sardines are said to resemble the beccafico, a tiny bird that becomes fat from gorging on figs.

Why is Some Seafood Called Fra Diavolo?
Fra diavolo is an angry sauce named after an angry guy. It's name translates as "brother devil" and is a reference to Michele Pezza, an infamous hothead and ferocious bandit who carried the nickname. Pezza was hired to lead Italian guerilla forces fighting against the invading French at Naples at the turn of the 19th century.
