    List of Ingredients




    8 oz. rotini pasta
    6 medium shrimp
    6 medium scallops
    3 oz. red bell pepper, finely julienned
    8 oz. white wine
    4 oz. tomato, seeded and chopped
    2 C. heavy cream, reduced in half
    1 T. chopped garlic
    1/2 white onion or 1 shallot, finely chopped
    1 C. Parmesan cheese
    2 C. chicken broth
    2 balls fresh mozzarella cheese
    Salt and pepper, to taste

    Recipe



    Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

    Drop tricolored rotini pasta into boiling water and cook al dente
    (approximately 10 minutes).
    While pasta is cooking, in a sauté pan, heat a vegetable/oil (80/20
    blend, if available), and when it begins to smoke lightly, toss in
    shrimp, scallops, red and yellow bell peppers. (Hint: This will work
    best if you use a nonstick pan.)
    Once this is partially cooked, deglaze shrimp, scallops, red and
    yellow peppers with the white wine.
    Let cook 4 to 5 minutes over low heat, then add the 4 ounces seeded
    and diced tomato. Sauté white onion and chopped garlic until opaque.
    Add 2 cups chicken broth. Let chicken broth reduce by one-third, then
    add 1/2 cup Parmesan.
    Cook and stir 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Toss rotini
    pasta in mixture.
    For an au gratin color, place two balls of fresh mozzarella cheese
    (thinly sliced) across top of pasta. Place in oven on broil. Serve
    immediately.

    Servings: 2
