  • Pat the scallops and shrimp dry before cooking to ensure a nice sear.
  • For extra flavor, you can add a splash of white wine to the sauce before adding the chicken broth.

Storage and Serving

  • This dish is best served immediately after cooking to enjoy the freshness of the seafood.
  • If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, gently warm the pasta in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of chicken broth or cream to prevent it from drying out.
