Start a pot of well salted water to a boil.
Place a dutch oven over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes; heat oil until it shimmers.
Pat the shrimp and scallops dry; sprinkle with salt. Use long tongs to carefully arrange them in a single layer in the hot pan. Cook undisturbed until well browned, flipping only when they release easily, after about 3 minutes. Flip; cook about 1 more minute, until just opaque. Transfer to a platter. Do not clean the dutch oven.
Cook pasta in the boiling water according to package directions, about 4 minutes.
Add butter and garlic to the dutch oven; cook about 30 seconds, until garlic is softened. Whisk in cream; bring to a simmer. Turn heat off; whisk in both cheeses until smooth. Add pasta to the sauce; toss to combine. Stir the shrimp and scallops into the sauce or top individual servings.
Serve garnished with parsley or chives, if desired.
