Pasta

Clam Sauce

Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Linguine

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of pasta cooking water, then drain the linguine.

Clam Sauce Preparation

  1. 2

    Sauté Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  2. 3

    Add Clams and Wine

    Add the fresh baby clams to the skillet along with the white wine and red pepper flakes. Cover the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the clams open up.

  3. 4

    Combine with Linguine

    Once the clams are open, add the drained linguine to the skillet. Toss everything together, adding a little reserved pasta water if the mixture seems dry.

  4. 5

    Season and Garnish

    Stir in the chopped parsley, lemon juice, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve immediately.
