The Story

Aglio Olio Spaghetti with Seafood is a classic Italian pasta dish that celebrates the natural flavors of quality ingredients. The dish begins with cooking spaghetti until it reaches the perfect al dente texture. Meanwhile, a mixture of fresh seafood, such as shrimp, scallops, and clams, is sautéed with garlic-infused olive oil and a hint of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick. The seafood and pasta are then combined, creating a harmonious blend of flavors that is both satisfying and comforting.

Directions

Step

Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until it is al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step

While the spaghetti is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Step

Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes to the pan. Sauté until the garlic becomes fragrant and lightly golden, taking care not to burn it.

Step

Add the mixed seafood to the pan and cook until the shrimp is pink, the scallops are opaque, and the clams have opened. Discard any clams that do not open.

Step

Season the seafood with salt to taste. Be mindful that the seafood and pasta will both contribute saltiness to the dish, so adjust accordingly.

Step

Add the cooked spaghetti to the pan with the seafood and toss everything together until the pasta is well coated in the garlic-infused olive oil.

Step

Remove from heat and transfer the Aglio Olio Spaghetti with Seafood to serving plates.

Step

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.

Step

Serve the dish immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the seafood.

Tips for this recipe

For added freshness and brightness, you can squeeze some lemon juice over the dish just before serving. Feel free to customize the seafood selection based on your preference and availability.
