  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook until al dente, 8-10 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water. Drain pasta in a colander and set aside.

    While pasta cooks, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Prepare Ingredients and Toast Panko

    Halve tomatoes (if you received a whole tomato, cut into 1/2" dice).

    Thinly slice garlic.

    Combine panko and 1 tsp. olive oil on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave until golden-brown and toasted, 1-2 minutes, stirring once halfway through.

    While panko toasts, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Cook the Scallops

    Pat scallops dry. Season all over with 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Let heat, 3 minutes.

    Add scallops to hot pan and cook undisturbed, 90 seconds.

    After 90 seconds, stir occasionally until scallops reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 60-90 seconds.

    Remove from burner. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    Return pan used to cook scallops to medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add garlic, tomatoes, and red pepper flakes (to taste) to hot pan. Stir occasionally until garlic is tender and tomatoes start to burst, 2-3 minutes.

    Add marinara, garlic salt, pesto (to taste), and 3/4 cup reserved pasta cooking water. Bring to a simmer.

  5. 5

    Add Pasta and Scallops and Finish Dish

    Once simmering, add pasta to hot pan and stir occasionally until sauce has thickened slightly and pasta is coated, 3-4 minutes.

    Return scallops to pan and stir to coat. Remove from burner.

    If sauce is too thick, add additional reserved pasta cooking water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping pasta with toasted panko and cheese. Bon appétit!
