Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Cook the bucatini

Bring a medium sauce pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the bucatini and cook until just tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, reserving ½ cup [¾ cup] pasta cooking water. While the water is heating and the bucatini is cooking, prepare the shellfish.

2

Prep and cook the shellfish

For shrimp or jumbo shrimp:

  • Rinse and drain the shrimp. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon oil until hot but not smoking. Add the shrimp and cook, turning once, until firm and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side for regular shrimp, 2 to 3 minutes per side for jumbo shrimp. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan.

 

For scallops: 

  • Rinse and drain the scallops. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt.

In a large frying pan over high heat, warm 2 to 3 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the scallops and cook without turning until golden brown on one side and starting to turn opaque, 2 to 4 minutes. Turn and continue cooking for about 30 seconds for translucent or 1 to 2 minutes for opaque. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan.

 

While the shellfish is cooking, prepare the remaining ingredients. 

3

Prep and cook the vegetables

  • Peel and finely chop enough shallots to measure ¼ cup [½ cup].
  • Cut the mushrooms into quarters. 
  • Trim the stem ends from the green beans if needed; cut the beans into 1-inch lengths.

In the same pan used for the shellfish, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Stir in the shallots and cook until starting to soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and green beans, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and the beans are crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. 

If using, add ¼ cup [½ cup] white wine (from your pantry) and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until thickened slightly, about 1 minute.

4

Finish the dish

To the pan with the vegetables, stir in the arrabbiata sauce base and reserved pasta cooking water and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the bucatini, shellfish, and capers; season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the bucatini, shellfish, vegetables, and sauce to individual bowls and serve.
