Seafood Pasta With Mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 shallots mined, or 2 tsp minced red onion
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced or crushed.
- 1 pound jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 pound sea scallops
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced thickly
- 1 pound tomatoes, chopped
- 3/4 cup white wine
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 pound linguuine
- sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- freshly grated parmesan
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots, and cook stirring for one minute.
- Add the shrimp and scallops, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Sea salt remember, respect the creatures of the sea! (just before you chow down on them.) Cook until shrimp are pink, and scallops are lightly browned on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Melt butter in skillet, and turn the heat up just a titch. Yes, I said titch. Add the mushrooms, seasoning with salt and pepper, and saute until nicely browned and all the liquid has evaporated from the pan. Remove and set aside.
- Add tomatoes and wine to the skillet, and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Add cream to sauce, and continue to simmer for another few minutes until slightly thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Add the seafood and mushrooms to the cream sauce and combine until heated through.
- While preparing the sauce, cook linguine in a large pot of salted water until al dente, then drain, but do not rinse. Add to the sauce and seafood, and toss to combine.
- While the sauce and pasta are cooking, chiffonade the basil, and grate the parmesan cheese. Sprinkle on top of the pasta and enjoy.
