- 0.5 tsp red chili flakes
- 200 g raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 200 g fresh mussels, cleaned and debearded
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup dry white wine
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the spaghetti according to 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
Add the minced garlic and red chili flakes to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 4
Add the shrimp and mussels to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp begin to turn pink and the mussels start to open.
Step 5
Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing them to soften slightly.
Step 6
Deglaze the skillet with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits at the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Step 7
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing gently to combine. If the pasta seems dry, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen it.
Step 8
Season the dish with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Toss again to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Step 9
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley over the pasta.
Step 10
Serve immediately, garnished with extra parsley or a wedge of lemon if desired.
