A really simple and tasty scallops recipe with chorizo sausage and spaghetti.

Scallops and Chorizo with Spaghetti
12 scallops
500g pack spaghetti
3 tbspn olive oil
100g (4 oz) chorizo, cut into chunks
1 red and 1 green pepper, cut into chunks

fresh parsley - chopped

Bring a pan of water up to the boil for the spaghetti.
Heat a frying pan add the chorizo. Fry until the fat runs.
Add the garlic and peppers and fry for a few minutes until softened. If this absorbs the fat too quickly, then add some of the olive oil.

Drain the spaghetti into a large bowl and stir in the olive oil and parsley.
Pile the sausage mixture on top.
Heat the pan and add the scallops. Fry a minute either side until the meat is firm.

Serve whilst hot with some crusty bread to mop up the juices.
