SPAGHETTINI WITH SPICY SEAFOOD

The beauty is in its simplicity: For all its flavor and elegance, the dish has the approachability of a quick weeknight meal. - Stephen Jackson, Recipe Developer

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until it is shimmering. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, add to the skillet and cook until lightly browned on both sides, about 3 minutes total; transfer to a plate. Season the scallops with salt and pepper, add to the skillet and cook undisturbed until nicely browned on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Give the scallops a quick stir and cook 1 minute, then transfer to the plate with the shrimp.
- Add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions for al dente. Strain, reserving 1/2 cup cooking water.
- While the spaghetti cooks, reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic to the skillet and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and cook, stirring to scrape up any brown bits, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the pasta, shrimp, scallops and reserved cooking water and toss to combine. Continue cooking until the sauce coats the pasta and the seafood is heated through, about 2 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, stir in the parsley and basil and divide among four serving bowls. Sprinkle with the lemon zest, drizzle with more olive oil if desired and serve.
SAUTEED SCALLOPS & SHRIMP PASTA

SPAGHETTINI WITH CHOPPED SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS IN RICH BROTH
Stole this one from Food Network and it was so fabulous I would not change a thing. I do increase the garlic (because I do that in all recipes) and I was even forced to use chicken broth rather than white wine (didn't have any!) and had to used dried parsley...but still the outcome was EXCEPTIONAL! I was scared that I was wasting shrimp and scallops by mincing them...but they cooked up HEAVENLY. This produces LOTS of broth! Would be great with bread for dipping.
