How to Make Sesame Ginger Pasta With Shrimp And Scallops

  1. Whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, honey, and red pepper flakes in a medium bowl. If making ahead, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for maximum flavor).
  2. Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  3. While pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and scallops and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add the prepared sesame ginger sauce to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, until slightly thickened.
  5. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce, tossing to coat. Add a little pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
  6. Stir in the cooked shrimp and scallops. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions (optional). Serve immediately and enjoy!
