Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 400 grams scallops (raw)
  • 400 grams dry spaghetti
  • 1/4 cup olive oil (extra virgin, use the best you can)
  • 2 whole lemons (grated rind and juice of)
  • Salt (freshly ground to taste)
  • Black pepper (freshly ground to taste)
  • 1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley (roughly chopped)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Trim any scruffy bits from the scallops and cut in half (note scallop pieces that many fishmongers sell at a lower price also would work well here).

  • Step 2: Cook pasta in well salted water until just tender and drain.

  • Step 3: Meanwhile heat the oil and toss the scallops in this until they are just coloured but not cooked through.

  • Step 4: Add the pasta to the scallops along with the lemon rind and juice and mix through and season well and then mix through the parsley and serve immediately.
