- A splash of white wine
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- A handful of fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions
- Boil the pasta in salted water until al dente, about 8-10 minutes, then drain and set aside.

- Toss in the mixed seafood and cook until the shrimp are pink and the scallops are just opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Tip: Overcooking seafood makes it tough, so keep an eye on it.
- Pour in a splash of white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any tasty bits stuck to the bottom.
