Looking for recipes for your Feast of the Seven Fishes menu? We’ve got you covered with our best Italian and Italian American seafood recipes. This traditional Christmas Eve dinner, also called La Vigilia, features at least seven seafood courses, paying homage to the seven sacraments of the Roman Catholic church. Here you’ll find briny baccalà, quick-cooking clams, San Francisco’s favorite seafood stew, and much, much more.
Seafood dishes are known for their speedy cook time, and these recipes are no exception. Many also happen to be effortless, giving you more time to focus on Christmas cookies and other holiday desserts.
