Categories     Main Courses

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb (454 g) scallops, fresh or thawed
Kosher salt
12 oz (340 g) good quality pasta
3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
8 large or 12 medium raw shrimp, fresh or frozen (and thawed) peeled, and deveined
3 or 4 cloves minced garlic
chopped Italian, flat leaf parsley
freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 oz (57 g to 85 g) good quality butter
1/3 cup (80 ml) dry white wine (you can substitute seafood stock or broth if you'd like)
(lemon slices/wedges to serve)

Steps:

  • Soak the scallops for 10 minutes in a brine solution (3 Tbsp Kosher salt in 16 oz water.)
  • Remove after 10 minutes and place on a rack to dry.
  • Next, put a large pot of well salted water on to boil for the pasta. Once the pasta goes in, set a timer for 7 minutes before the pasta will be ready (according to package instructions.)
  • Make sure the scallops are dry. If they are not, pat them dry with a paper towel. When the timer goes off, put a large cast iron pan on high heat and add the extra virgin olive oil.
  • When the pan and oil are very hot, add the scallops and sear them for about 1 1/2 minutes before adding the shrimp, garlic, and parsley.
  • Cook for another 2 minutes, then turn the scallops and shrimp and cook for a further 1 1/2 minutes. Next, add the wine, scraping the bottom of the pan; turn the heat down just to keep it warm.
  • Add the butter and stir to melt. Add some freshly ground black pepper, if desired, then taste the sauce or a piece of seafood and add salt if needed.
  • Drain the pasta, which should be ready, but reserve a cup or so of pasta water. You will only need this pasta water if you want to add some after mixing everything together. Add the pasta directly to the seafood sauce in the pan.
  • Stir gently to incorporate all the ingredients together. Add some of the reserved pasta water, if desired, then top with a twist of lemon in the pan.
  • Serve immediately as this seafood pasta dish is best piping hot. Don't forget some crusty bread to mop up the buttery garlic and wine sauce at the end!

SHRIMP AND SCALLOP SCAMPI WITH LINGUINE



Shrimp and Scallop Scampi with Linguine image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 29m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
1 pound linguine
12 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
12 large sea scallops, tough foot muscles removed
Freshly ground pepper
3 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus lemon wedges for garnish
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup torn fresh basil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook as the label directs.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the shrimp and scallops dry, then season with salt and pepper. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons butter to the pan and cook the shrimp until golden on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the shrimp and add half of the garlic; cook until the garlic is fragrant but the shrimp are still translucent, 1 to 2 more minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a plate.
  • Add the scallops to the skillet and cook until golden on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the scallops, add the remaining garlic and cook 1 to 2 more minutes. Add the lemon juice and wine and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Cook until the sauce is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Return the shrimp to the pan, then add the basil and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter; season with salt and pepper.
  • Drain the pasta and transfer to a large serving bowl. Toss with the shrimp, scallops and sauce; garnish with parsley and lemon.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use Fresh Seafood: The fresher the seafood, the better your dish will taste. If possible, buy seafood that was caught or harvested within the last 24 hours.
  • Don't Overcook the Seafood: Seafood cooks quickly, so it's important to be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked seafood will become tough and chewy.
  • Use a Good Quality Olive Oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Look for an extra virgin olive oil that has a fruity, peppery flavor.
  • Add Salt and Pepper to Taste: Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste. Be careful not to over-season, as you can always add more salt and pepper later.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This shrimp, clams, and scallops pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of seafood, pasta, and vegetables is packed with flavor and nutrients. Plus, it's a great way to get your kids to eat their seafood. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy seafood pasta recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
