Looking for a good recipe for Shrimp and Scallops?

I am making Good Friday dinner this year and as we can't eat meat only fish I thought of making a dish with shrimp and scallops. I would prefer a pasta dish (I usually substitute quinoa pasta) but don't really have any recipes. Does anyone have any ideas?

Here is a shrimp salad recipe I make a lot, especially in the summer. It is zesty and delicious! Every bite is a burst of flavor!

Turn the shrimp over, add the garlic, and cook until the shrimp is opaque throughout, about 1 minute. Return the first batch of shrimp to the skillet, mix well so that the garlic is evenly incorporated and remove the pan from the heat.

Squeeze the lime juice over all the shrimp. Add the cilantro, toss well, and serve.

Fettuccine with Shrimp, Scallops, and Mussels

Recipe is on epicurious.com. It is a bit calorically...expensive... at 962 calories/serving, but you know... pasta dishes often can be. You can always just reduce any of the richer ingredients...if that's necessary to fit your goals. There are some nice veggies in this pasta recipe, which is always a bonus.

I've also made the "Linguine with Shrimp and Scallops in Thai Green Curry Sauce" on the same site, and that is delicious.
