• 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten-free spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.

Step 2

While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Mince the garlic and finely chop the shallot. Add them to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.

Step 4

Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the tomatoes soften and release their juices.

Step 5

Pour in the white wine (if using) and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off. Then, add the vegetable or seafood stock.

Step 6

Add the shrimp, scallops, and mussels to the skillet. Cover with a lid and cook for 4-6 minutes, or until the seafood is fully cooked and the mussels open (discard any mussels that remain closed).

Step 7

Season the seafood mixture with salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes, if using. Stir to combine.

Step 8

Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet along with the reserved pasta water. Toss everything together over low heat for 1-2 minutes until the pasta is well coated in the sauce.

Step 9

Remove from heat and stir in fresh parsley and lemon juice.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
