Pasta Aioli di Mare

[Bill Schultz]

My recipe for a little heaven. Right off the boat dry pack scallops and fresh Gulf shrimp. Some real good pasta from Italy.

Muscle trimmed off the scallops and dried real good, shrimp clean and ready

Fresh Ciabatta rolls sliced open, dressed with melted butter, some EVOO and a bunch of garlic

CI inside the Genni getting warmed up

Garlic in with two TBSP butter and EVOO, then the scallops dried off one more time and in, browned on one side and after the turn the Shrimp in

Pasta boiled inside and drained, in with the rest, add half a cup of the saved pasta water, 1/4 cup of good white wine, diced fresh Italian Parsley, fresh ground black pepper. Zest of one lemon and let reduce a little

The plate with some fresh ground and grated Parmesan

And the toasted Garlic Bread too

Great looking pasta dish, Bill.

To do pasta on a CI, do you go indirect once pasta is in? I'd be worried about "frying" the noodles.

No Luke pasta is normally inside or whatever in boiling salted water until A Dente, then drained and put on the CI when everything else is done and tossed like a salad just long enough to meld flavors
