Treat your ingredients with care...
- Shrimp — Be careful not to overcook the shrimp, as they can become rubbery. Cook them just until they turn pink and opaque.
- Scallops — Pat the scallops dry before cooking to ensure a nice sear. Cook them on high heat for a short time to achieve a golden crust while keeping the inside tender.
- Mussels — Discard any mussels that do not close when tapped or those with cracked shells before cooking. After cooking, discard any mussels that do not open.
Tips & Tricks
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- Serve the Linguine with Seafood Medley with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
- If you prefer a lighter version, you can substitute half of the linguine pasta with zucchini noodles.
- Fresh seafood is key to the success of this dish, so try to source the highest quality ingredients available.
- Experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor profile of the dish.
Serving advice
Serve the Linguine with Seafood Medley in individual pasta bowls, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley. Accompany it with a side of crusty bread and a simple green salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
Presentation advice
To enhance the presentation, arrange a few cooked mussels in their shells on top of the pasta. Drizzle a little extra sauce over the seafood and sprinkle some freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color.
