Linguine Puttanesca With Smoked Mussels and Crab image

Puttanesca ("harlot sauce", roughly translated) is one of my favorite Italian pasta dishes. This is a modified version of Rachel Ray's Puttanesca in which I use smoked mussels (the kind in a tin) and and fish sauce as an alternative to anchovies. I also toss in IMITATION crab meat.
