This Cajun-inspired seafood pasta recipe is a hot one, but delicious! If you don’t like as much spice, divide the amounts of pepper in half. Better to add more later than spoil your creation. Bay scallops are preferred, but the larger sea scallops can be used if they are cut in half. This dish can also be placed in a casserole dish and placed under the broiler until the top turns golden brown.
