Linguine with Friendly Little Fish
from I Loved, I Lost, I Made Spaghetti by Guilia Melucci
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for taste
1 clove garlic, minced
Pinch hot red pepper flakes
1/2 pound shrimp (buy them already cleaned, if available, and remove tails)
1/2 pound sea scallops, sea or bay (if sea, cut into quarters)
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 pound linguine
1/2 cup chopped parsley
This is a quick and easy sauce that can be made while the pasta is cooking; you don't want to cook the fish too long or it will dry out.
In a medium saute pan, heat the olive oil and then add the garlic and red pepper. Saute for 2 to 3 minutes until golden, then add the fish and white wine. Cook until shrimp are pink and scallops are solid white.
Meanwhile, cook linguine. Drain well and add to the fish, stirring gently. Add a splash of olive oil and the chopped parsley, then divide into warmed bowls. You do not searve fish pasta with cheese.
