1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat and add the spices, toasting them until their aroma is released, about 3 minutes.
3. Add the oil to wet the spices, then add the shellfish and coat with the spiced oil.
4. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
5. Return the skillet to the stovetop and remove the cooked shellfish to a serving platter, discard any mussels and clams that didn’t open.
6. Over medium high heat, saute onions and tomatoes for 5 minutes in the same pan you cooked your shellfish.
