If your taste buds are craving a little coastal vacation without the airfare, this one’s for you. This Seafood Medley Pasta is bright, briny, buttery, and just fancy enough to feel impressive—without turning dinner into an all-night project.
We’re talking tender shrimp, sweet scallops, and juicy mussels swimming in a white wine garlic sauce with lemon zest and tomatoes, all tangled up in spinach & olive fettuccine. And the real MVP? Olivelle’s Olive Tapenade Dried Herb Blend, which brings that salty, savory Mediterranean magic that makes people say, “Wait… what did you put in this?” 😉
Perfect for date night, dinner with friends, or when you just want to feel a little extra on a random Tuesday.
🛒 Ingredients
-
1 package spinach & olive fettuccine
-
1 pasta rock
-
½ large shallot, diced
-
2 large garlic cloves, minced
-
2 tsp white pepper
-
½ lb shrimp
-
½ lb scallops
-
1 cup white wine
-
2 tsp lemon zest
-
1 cup tomatoes, diced
-
½ lb mussels
-
2 tbsp unsalted butter
-
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
🍝 Directions
-
Bring 4 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Add 1 pasta rock and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, cover, and set aside.
-
In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, add the lemon infused olive oil. Sauté shallots until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute).
-
Season shrimp and scallops with 1 tsp sea salt and white pepper. Add to the pan and sear about 1 minute per side—just until lightly golden. Don’t overcook!
-
Add white wine, lemon zest, tomatoes, olive tapenade blend, remaining garlic salt, and mussels to the pan.
-
Cover and cook until mussels open and the sauce reduces enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Tip: If the sauce needs more time, remove seafood and let it reduce a bit longer. -
Finish the sauce with butter. Add pasta and toss to coat. Return seafood to the pan if removed and cook another 1–2 minutes until everything is warmed through.
-
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
💡 Chivilla Bay Tips & Tricks
-
Wine matters: Use a dry white wine you’d actually drink (Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio are solid choices).
-
No mussels? Sub clams or skip them altogether—this recipe is flexible.
-
Want heat? A pinch of red pepper flakes takes this dish up a notch.
-
Serving idea: Pair with crusty bread and a simple green salad. Boom—restaurant vibes at home.
This is one of those dishes that feels like a celebration but fits right into real life—good food, good people, no stress. Just the way we like it at Chivilla Bay 🌊🍷
