Categories     Seafood Pasta

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound linguine pasta
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pound grape tomatoes
⅓ cup dry white wine
¼ cup sliced pitted Kalamata olives
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pound bay scallops, rinsed and patted dry
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add linguine and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 9 to 10 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain pasta, reserving 1/4 cup pasta water, and set aside.
  • Wipe out the pot, and heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add tomatoes, stirring occasionally, and cook until they start to burst, 5 to 7 minutes; crush some with the back of a spoon. Stir in white wine, olives, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper; reduce heat and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallops all at once, coating with oil; don't move or shake the pan for 1 minute. Gently flip the scallops, and cook until firm and opaque, 1 to 2 minutes more. Add garlic to the skillet and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Do not overcook scallops.
  • Add the pasta to the tomato mixture, toss to coat, and add reserved pasta water, if necessary. Divide the pasta mixture evenly among 4 shallow bowls and top with the scallops. Lightly drizzle with more olive oil, if desired, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: Short-grain rice, such as Arborio or Carnaroli, is best for making spaghetti-style rice as it holds its shape well and absorbs the sauce nicely.
  • Cook the rice properly: Follow the package instructions for cooking the rice. In general, you will need to bring the rice to a boil in salted water, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Use a large skillet: When cooking the spaghetti-style rice, use a large skillet so that the rice has plenty of room to cook evenly.
  • Add the sauce gradually: When adding the sauce to the rice, do it gradually and stir constantly. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking together and ensure that it is evenly coated with the sauce.
  • Serve immediately: Spaghetti-style rice is best served immediately. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can reheat it in a skillet over low heat, stirring constantly, until it is warmed through.

Conclusion:

Spaghetti-style rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a variety of sauces and toppings to choose from, spaghetti-style rice is sure to become a favorite in your household.
