summer seafood pasta

in salad

I found a bag of frozen seafood from Trader Joe’s that contained shrimp, scallops and calamari rings that was screaming to be paired with pasta. I had been wanting to have a good seafood pasta for sometime now and this, if I can say so myself was delicious! Simple is the way to go with this meal and it was so light and perfect for a summer night.
My Summer Seafood Pasta:
1 bag of frozen shrimp, scallops and calamari rings
2 Tbsp olive oil
4 cloves of minced garlic
1 cup sliced grape tomatoes
1/4 cup white cooking wine
Juice from 1/2 of a lemon
Pat of butter (for good measure!)
Salt & Pepper
2 servings whole wheat pasta

Heat olive oil in large pan and add 1/2 of minced garlic and all of seafood, lemon juice, white cooking wine and tomatoes. Simmer for about 4-5 minutes until seafood is heated through. Add the pat of butter, rest of garlic, salt and pepper and pasta. Mix until combined. Serve in bowls with some basil and parmesan if desired.  Serve with a side salad for the perfect summer meal.
