16 shrimp, or more to taste, peeled and deveined
20 reconstituted sun-dried tomatoes

Steps:

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Saute scallops and shrimp in hot butter until shrimp are pink, about 5 minutes. Stir tomatoes, artichoke hearts, mushrooms, and pesto into shrimp mixture; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes.
Pour clam juice, whipping cream, Romano cheese, white wine, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and linguine into shrimp mixture. Roll remaining butter in flour and add to shrimp mixture and mix well. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until hot throughout and flavors blend, about 10 minutes.
