Step 1
Boil spaghetti in salted water until just shy of al dente, about 2 min under package time. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Tear off two 18-inch sheets of parchment paper. Divide spaghetti, shrimp, and mussels evenly between them.
Step 3
Scatter garlic over seafood and pasta. Drizzle wine and olive oil evenly, then season with salt, pepper, and lemon zest.
Step 4
Fold each parchment sheet in half, then crimp and fold the edges tightly to seal completely.
Step 5
Place packets on a sheet pan and bake at 425°F for 10 minutes until parchment puffs and mussels open.
Step 6
Carefully tear open packets at the table, squeeze lemon juice over, finish with parsley, and serve hot.
