  1. 1

    Start Pasta and Prepare Ingredients

    Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until tender but still slightly firm, 6-7 minutes.

    Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water. Drain pasta in a colander, rinse quickly with cold water, and set aside.

    While pasta cooks, stem and coarsely chop parsley.

    Mince garlic.

    Halve tomatoes.

    Pat shrimp dry, and season with a pinch of pepper.

    If using scallops, pat dry, halve, and season same amount.

  2. 2

    Make the Garlic-Butter Breadcrumbs

    Place butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, 20-40 seconds.

    Stir panko, parsley (reserve a pinch for garnish), half the garlic, and half the red pepper flakes (reserve remaining of each for sauce) into butter. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp olive oil. Add shrimp to hot pan in a single layer and cook undisturbed on one side until golden, 1-2 minutes.

    Transfer to a bowl. Shrimp will finish cooking in a later step.

    If using scallops, follow same instructions and cook undisturbed, 1-2 minutes.

    Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    Return pan used to cook shrimp to medium heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and remaining garlic to hot pan and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds.

    Add reserved pasta cooking water, cream, and Parmesan and stir constantly until slightly thickened, 3-6 minutes.

    Stir in cooked pasta and tomatoes and remove from burner.

    Taste, and add remaining red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.

  5. 5

    Bake Pasta and Finish Dish

    Pour pasta and sauce into prepared casserole dish and place on prepared baking sheet to catch any drips. For best results, use a 2-quart casserole dish or 9" pie pan.

    Arrange shrimp on top and pour any accumulated juices over. Cover dish evenly with garlic-butter breadcrumbs.

    Bake in hot oven until breadcrumbs are golden brown and shrimp reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 12-15 minutes.

    Let cool 5 minutes.

    If using scallops, follow same instructions.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing with reserved parsley. Bon appétit!
