Ingredients:

  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1/2 cup clam juice
  • 1/4 cup garlic (chopped )
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp capers
  • 2 tbsp parsley

Directions:

  1. Put a large pot of water on to boil.
  2. Sprinkle scallops on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and add the scallops; cook, turning once, until browned on both sides, about 6 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Cook spaghetti squash in an oven 450 degrees until mushy. Scoop pulp out when cool enough to handle.
  4. Whisk wine and clam juice in a small bowl until smooth.
  5. Cook garlic in the pan over medium-high heat, stirring often, until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the wine mixture; bring to a boil and cook until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice, capers stir, 1 to 2 minutes.
  6. Return the scallops to the pan, add the spaghetti squash and cook, stirring gently, until heated through and coated with the sauce, about 1 minute. Stir in parsley and serve immediately.
