This Spicy Mango Lobster & Scallop Harissa Linguine is a show-stopping dish that combines the richness of seafood with the bold flavours of our Nelson Olive Oil Co. products. Tender lobster tails and fresh scallops are marinated in a luxurious blend of Alfoos Mango White Balsamic and butter, then grilled to perfection. The pasta is tossed in a zesty tomato sauce made with Harissa Infused Olive Oil, garlic, and cherry tomatoes, creating a perfect balance of heat and sweetness. Finished with fresh basil and parmesan, this gourmet dish is easy to prepare yet impressive enough for special occasions.

Spicy Mango Lobster & Scallop Harissa Linguine

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Harissa Infused Olive Oil

  • 3 tbsp Alfoos Mango White Balsamic
  • 8-10 Large Fresh Scallops

  • 1.5 tbsp Real Butter (or Butter “Taste” Olive Oil)

  • 2 Lobster Tails

  • 350g Linguine Pasta

  • 2 Large Shallots (diced)

  • 6 Garlic Cloves (minced)

  • 5 cups Cherry Tomatoes (halved)

  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese (grated)

  • 1 cup fresh basil (chopped) (plus extra for garnish)

  • 1 tsp Sea Salt

Directions

  1. Prepare Lobster Tails: Cut along the spine, loosen meat, and rest on top of the shell for easier grilling. Rinse and pat scallops dry.

  2. Make Mango Butter: Whisk mango balsamic and butter. Marinate lobster tails and scallops in the mixture for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
  3. Cook Pasta: Boil salted water, cook linguine until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain and rinse the pasta under cold water.
  4. Make Tomato Sauce: Heat harissa olive oil over medium/high. Sauté garlic and shallots for 3-5 minutes, then add cherry tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Cook covered for 10 minutes, then mash tomatoes slightly and cook uncovered for 10-15 more minutes until sauce thickens.
  5. Grill Lobster & Scallops: Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill both for 2.5 minutes per side. Set aside, cover with foil, and chop lobster.
  6. Finish Sauce: Stir basil into the tomato sauce, then add pasta, tossing to combine. Use reserved pasta water to adjust consistency.
  7. Serve and Garnish: Plate pasta, top with lobster and scallops, and garnish with parmesan and extra basil.
