Cooking Instructions

Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet or wok, stir-fry scallops and garlic in oil and butter for 5 minutes or until scallops are opaque; remove and keep warm.

In the same skillet or wok, stir-fry the carrots, beans, and red pepper until crisp-tender. Stir in the lemon juice, parsley, basil, salt and pepper. Drain spaghetti. Add scallops and spaghetti to the vegetable mixture; toss to coat.

We found that adding some fresh spinach to the vegetables added to the flavor. I also like to a little soy sauce. Also shrimp can be substituted for scallops.
