GARLIC ANGEL HAIR SHRIMP



Garlic Angel Hair Shrimp image

This was inspired by one of my favorite restaurant pasta dishes. I keep the lemon separate until the end due to a picky family member, but you could add it earlier if everyone likes lemon. Do not use pre-cooked shrimp and don't overcook the shrimp.

ANGEL HAIR PASTA WITH SCALLOPS AND ARUGULA



Angel Hair Pasta With Scallops and Arugula image

This recipe is from the Williams-Sonoma Collection series, Pasta, by Erica De Mane. A note about capers: Purchase capers packed in salt. They have a sweet, floral fragrance, as opposed to sharp-tasting brine-packed varieties (the vinegar variety changes the flavor of the caper). Ask for them at Italian specialty-food stores. To prepare salted capers, soak them in cool water for about 15 minutes, changing the water once or twice, to remove excess salt. Give them a final rinse and drain well. Estimated prep and cook time combined is 35-40 minutes.

SAVORY SEA SCALLOPS AND ANGEL HAIR PASTA



Savory Sea Scallops and Angel Hair Pasta image

This is a very simple, easy to prepare meal that you will most likely be asked to prepare again. The taste, if carefully prepared and not overcooked, is incredible. ENJOY!

Provided by JIM F.

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Scallops

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta
¼ cup butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds sea scallops, rinsed and patted dry
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and cook just until fragrant and softened, about 1 minute. Slice any scallops over 3/4-inch thick in half so they'll cook evenly; stir scallops, basil, and parsley into the skillet. Cook and gently stir just until scallops feel slightly firm when pressed with a finger, 2 to 3 minutes. Scallops will become tough and chewy if overcooked. Stir in lemon juice, and season with salt and black pepper. Pour in cream if you like a thicker sauce. Bring the mixture just to a bare simmer.
  • Serve over hot angel hair pasta; sprinkle to taste with Parmesan cheese.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Seafood: For the best flavor, use fresh bay scallops and shrimp. If you can't find fresh seafood, you can use frozen, but be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Don't Overcook the Seafood: Seafood cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use Good Quality Olive Oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this dish, so be sure to use a good quality oil that has a fruity flavor.
  • Add the Arugula at the End: Arugula is a delicate green that will wilt quickly, so add it to the pasta at the very end.

Conclusion:

This angel hair pasta with bay scallops, shrimp, and arugula is a light and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The combination of seafood, arugula, and lemon zest creates a bright and refreshing flavor that is sure to please everyone at the table.
