Ingredients

  • 8 oz spaghetti
  • 8 oz large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 8 oz mussels or clams, cleaned
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 12 oz frozen French fries

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Start the fries in an air fryer or oven on a separate pan.

  2. 2

    Boil spaghetti in salted water until just al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain well.

  3. 3

    Tear off two 18-inch sheets of parchment. Divide pasta between them, then top with shrimp, mussels, minced garlic, and wine.

  4. 4

    Fold parchment loosely and seal edges by creasing twice, leaving space for steam. Place on a baking sheet.

  5. 5

    Bake for 8–10 minutes until parchment puffs and shellfish opens. Discard any unopened mussels.

  6. 6

    Serve hot with fries alongside. Drizzle pan juices over pasta.

Tools you’ll need
