  • While the linguine is cooking, heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Stir in shrimp and scallops and cook, stirring frequently, until shrimp turn pink, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Stir shrimp, scallops, mussels, and parsley into tomato mixture; cook until sauce begins to bubble and mussels open, about 7 minutes. Pour sauce over linguine and serve.
