Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (4-inch-long) fresh hot red chile, thinly sliced crosswise
3 scallions, white and green parts thinly sliced separately
1 lb sea scallops, tough muscle removed from side of each if necessary
3/4 lb large shrimp, shelled and deveined
1 (14-oz) can unsweetened coconut milk
1 tablespoon Thai green curry paste
1/4 cup chicken broth or water
1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons Asian fish sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
12 oz dried thin linguine
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté chile and white parts of scallions, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
  • Pat scallops and shrimp dry separately and season with salt. Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in same skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook scallops until browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side (scallops will be almost cooked through). Transfer scallops to a bowl with slotted spoon and sauté shrimp in same skillet, stirring occasionally, until almost cooked through, about 3 minutes. Add shrimp to scallops.
  • Add coconut milk, curry paste, broth, brown sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice to skillet, then simmer, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook linguine in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain in a colander.
  • Stir scallops and shrimp with any liquid in bowl into sauce in skillet and heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer until scallops and shrimp are just cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer seafood to a clean bowl with slotted spoon and add linguine and cilantro to sauce in skillet, tossing to coat.
  • Divide pasta and sauce among 4 bowls. Top with seafood and sprinkle with scallion greens and chile mixture.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The curry sauce was very mild, and the shrimp and scallops were a bit overcooked. I would recommend adding more spices to the sauce and cooking the seafood for a shorter amount of time.
