Steps

40 minutes

1

Wrap the scallops in paper towels to absorb moisture and thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
2

Soak the frozen shrimp in drinking water to thaw.
3

Peel the garlic cloves and chop them finely.
4

Slice the chili pepper lengthwise, remove the seeds (unless you prefer it very spicy), and set aside.
5

Fill a pot with about 4 1/4 cups of water, add about 1 1/2 tablespoons of salt, and bring to a boil. The pasta water should be saltier than usual, so you won't need to add more salt when sautéing.
6

Once the water is boiling, add the spaghetti and cook for about 8 minutes. This is usually about 3 minutes less than the time suggested on the pasta package. Once done, drain the pasta and set aside.
7

In a frying pan, add oil and heat over medium-high heat, or until it reaches 350°F (about when the center of a certain brand's frying pan changes color).
8

Add the garlic to the pan and sauté until fragrant.
9

Pat the thawed shrimp dry and add them to the pan, sautéing for about 1 minute.
10

Add the scallops and sear both sides until they are slightly golden brown.
11

Pour in the white wine and let it simmer until you can smell the aroma and the alcohol has slightly evaporated.
12

Add the cooked spaghetti and continue to sauté.
13

Add a pinch of Italian herbs and black pepper, and continue to sauté until the pasta looks glossy and has absorbed some of the sauce.
14

Remove from heat, plate, and enjoy~
