1

Warm the crushed garlic and 2 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until the garlic begins to sizzle, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes with their juice, red pepper flakes, oregano, basil, and salt. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine at a boil until slightly firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain and keep warm.
3

While the linguine cooks, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the shrimp and scallops and cook, stirring often, until the shrimp turn pink, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
4

Stir the shrimp, scallops, mussels, and parsley into the tomato mixture; cook until the sauce starts to bubble and the mussels open, about 7 minutes. Pour the sauce over the linguine and serve.
