Seafood Pasta Recipe

Today I'd like to introduce to you, Jamie's White-Wine-Garlic-Basil-Seafood-Pasta! Whoo isn't that quite the name. After Jon has asked me to cook the pasta for the second time since we've been back at school for at most three weeks, I figured that it must be of a certain standard :) So as usual, I'm here to share the good stuff. 

Ingredients: Finely chopped garlic, Dried Basil, Garlic Salt, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, White Wine, Crushed Red Peppers, Normal Pasta (it doesn't taste as good with wheat or multi-grain pasta), Scallops, Shrimp. 

Steps:

1. Set the water to boil, for the pasta.

2. While preparing the water, heat up the wok (one that will fit all the ingredients), and add garlic. 

3. When the garlic starts turning brown, turn the heat down and add the oil and white wine. Turning the heat down will prevent the garlic from splattering. After adding the white wine, crank up the heat to the max to concentrate the white wine for more taste. 

4. When the water is boiling, add the pasta and some salt.

5. Add basil and the crushed red peppers to the bubbling oil mixture.

6. When the pasta is about a minute away from al dente, add the scallops and shrimp. 

7. When the pasta is finally done, drain it and add it to the seafood mix. 

8. Add a little more white wine and olive oil if you think the pasta is still blend after tasting, and add a lot of basil. Also add some garlic salt :) 

9. Basically keep tossing the pasta and ingredients till you find the right taste you want. 

I personally like the taste of basil so I add a lot. Crushed red peppers is great for me too, as it give the pasta some kick. Remember to add each ingredient slowly, and keep tasting till you like the final outcome! Have fun cooking!
