Method

Cooking Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil the Water

    In a large pot, bring water to a rolling boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt.

  2. 2

    Cook the Spaghetti

    Add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Preparing Seafood

  1. 3

    Clean the Seafood

    Rinse the shrimp, scallops, and mussels under cold water. Remove any beards from the mussels and set aside.

Making the Sauce

  1. 4

    Sauté Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 5

    Add Tomatoes

    Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook until they begin to burst, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 6

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.

  4. 7

    Cook the Seafood

    Add the shrimp, scallops, and mussels to the skillet. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and mussels have opened.

Combining and Serving

    Combine Pasta with Sauce

    Add the drained spaghetti to the skillet and toss everything together. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.
