Sauce
- ½ tsp light soy sauce
- 1 tsp oyster sauce

Method
- In a large saucepan boil water for the pasta. When water begins to boil add salt liberally, let water return to a boil and cook pasta to al dente. Drain.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat with olive oil. Add shallots and garlic, and saute 5 minutes. Stir in stock and tomatoes and bring to a bubble. If using raw seafood, season with lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
- Raise the heat a bit then add the seasoned seafood and heat through or cook until just about firm and opaque, a couple of minutes. If using cooked seafood, season the seafood when you add it to skillet with lemon zest, salt and pepper.
- Stir in heavy cream or milk and toss hot pasta with sauce and chives and/or parsley, adjust seasoning and serve.
