Ingredients

• 12 oz spaghetti or linguine
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 tsp red chili flakes
• 8 oz shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 8 oz scallops
• 0.5 cup white wine
• 3 cups green cabbage, thinly sliced
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 0 to taste salt
• 0 to taste black pepper

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until melted.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and red chili flakes to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 4

Add the shrimp and scallops to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turn pink and the scallops are golden on the outside. Remove the seafood from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add an extra drizzle of olive oil if needed. Add the sliced cabbage, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 6

Deglaze the skillet with white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 7

Return the cooked shrimp and scallops to the skillet. Add the lemon juice and reserved pasta water, stirring to create a light sauce.

Step 8

Toss the cooked pasta with the seafood and cabbage mixture until well coated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 9

Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!
