Ingredients:

Serving

120 g whole wheat spaghetti
210 g (2 cups) fresh asparagus , cut into 2-inch pieces
480 g raw sea scallops
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
6 cloves garlic
140 g (1 cup) frozen green peas, thawed
30 g shredded parmesan
20 g pecans, chopped
2 tbsp lemon
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions:

In a large pot, cook pasta according to package directions. Add asparagus during the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking. Before draining pasta, reserve 1/4 cup pasta-cooking water in a small dish. Drain pasta and asparagus and return to pot.
Sear scallops separately
Prepare pesto: reduce heat to medium, deglaze scallop pan by pouring 1/4 cup broth into pan and scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan with a wooden spoon. Add garlic and saute until fragrant,1 to 2 minutes. Add remaining 1/4 cup broth and peas and saute until broth and peas are just heated, about 2 min.
Transfer pea mixture to a mini food processor. Add Parmesan, nuts, lemons juice, salt and pepper; process until combined, scraping down sides as needed. Add pesto to pot with drained pasta and asparagus toss until evenly combined. Add 2 tbsp (or more) reserved cooking liquid and stir until desired consistency is achieved. Divide pasta mixture into servings, top with scallops. If desired, garish with additional chopped pecans and parmesan.
