Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 unit Bell Pepper
2 unit Scallions
1 unit Chili Pepper
1 unit Lemon
8 ounce Scallops
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
2 clove Garlic
6 ounce Spaghetti
3 ounce Dried Chorizo
13.76 ounce Colavita Crushed Tomatoes
1 unit Seafood Stock Concentrate
2 tablespoon Cream Cheese
¼ cup Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon Sugar
2 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Butter
Kosher Salt
Pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry all produce. Core, deseed, and thinly slice bell pepper. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Thinly slice chili, removing seeds for less heat. Quarter lemon. Pat scallops dry with paper towels. Drizzle with olive oil; season all over with paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Toss bell pepper on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place garlic cloves on a small piece of foil; drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Cinch into a packet; place on same sheet. Roast on top rack until bell pepper is lightly charred and garlic is softened, 15-20 minutes. Transfer roasted garlic to a cutting board.
  • Once water is boiling, add spaghetti to pot. Cook until al dente, 9-11 minutes. Reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water (1 cup for 4 servings), then drain and set aside. Reserve empty pot for use in step 5.
  • Meanwhile, halve chorizo lengthwise; thinly slice into half-moons. Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. Turn off heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chorizo to a plate, leaving as much oil in pan as possible (you'll use in step 6). Gently mash roasted garlic on cutting board with a fork.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in pot used for pasta over medium-high heat. Add scallions whites and mashed garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. Stir in crushed tomatoes, stock concentrate, roasted bell pepper, 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4), and ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4). Simmer until thickened, 2-3 minutes. Stir in spaghetti, chorizo, cream cheese, 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4), and half the Parmesan until combined. If needed, stir in splashes of reserved cooking water until pasta is coated in sauce. Turn off heat; cover.
  • Heat pan with chorizo oil over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot, add scallops; cook until browned and cooked through, 2-4 minutes per side (for 4, cook in batches, if needed). Check spaghetti; add a splash more remaining reserved pasta cooking water if needed. Divide pasta between plates; top with scallops, scallion greens, remaining Parmesan, and a pinch of chili if desired. Squeeze lemon juice over dish. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.

  • If your scallops still have the little piece of muscle attached to the side, remove and discard it. (See video for technique.) Pat scallops dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Dice the chorizo into small cubes (about 1/4-inch). Heat a 12-inch nonstick pan over high heat. Add chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on several sides — just a few minutes. Remove chorizo to a bowl.
  • Add oil to pan and keep over high heat. When very hot, add scallops without crowding. Cook 60 seconds without moving, then add butter and cook 30 seconds more. Use tongs to flip each scallop and cook just until done to your liking. I like to pull them off the heat before they're opaque in the center, which, depending on size, may mean just 30 seconds or so on the second side.
  • To serve, place a few scallops and some of the chorizo on each plate and sprinkle with chives, if using. These are great over basmati rice pilaf.
