Mix blackening spices together. Dredge scallops in blackening spices. In skillet, sauté onion in butter, add mushrooms after onions are translucent, set aside. Boil pasta in water, add a little olive oil. Cook 4-5 minutes, or according to instructions. Heat a pat of butter in skillet to high heat. Add scallops on high heat for 6-8 minutes. Cover to keep warm, set aside. Place pasta in a bowl. Drizzle with lemon-flavored olive oil. Add small pat of butter, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes. Toss. Serve pasta, place scallops on top. Serve with parmesan if desired.

WARNING!  As written, this recipe is too pepper-hot for many…reduce pepper amounts unless you like it very spicy!

Recipe Reviews:

"Very easy to prepare, and very good - couldn't find any lemon flavored olive oil, so I mixed in some fresh lemon juice instead - it was great! "

"Very easy to prepare and very good. Made it for a group and everyone loved it! "

"This was a pretty good meal. The meal was very spicy and if you don't have an iron stomach don't add as much pepper. I found this too spicy so I gave it 3 stars, but with less spice it's a 4."
 -Andrew 

"Excellent! We had it twice in one week. Once with the scallops as an appetizer and a second with rice as the main coarse."
 -Cory 

"Fantastic! very easy to do, nice and spicy will be doing it again very soon."
