Simple Shrimp and Scallop Pasta Recipe – Terrific recipe! We all enjoyed this dinner. I left out the red pepper, and I decreased the paste to 1/2 can. I also added more wine (about 3/4 c total), and I added a little clam juice to the sauce at the end. It made just enough to feed 6 adults, it may be 8 technical servings, but I guess we had larger portions. Will definitely make it again!
