This seafood pasta is ready in less than half an hour and is incredibly delicious. Cooked buccatini pasta is tossed in a pan with bay scallops and shell-less clams, which are pre-sautéed with spices. The frying should take no more than five minutes to ensure the seafood retains its tender texture and juiciness. Immediately add the clam juice, lemon juice, grated Parmesan, and olive oil to the pasta, and it will be coated in a light, flavorful sauce with gooey cheese. Irresistible! Sprinkle with more Parmesan when serving.
