Pasta

Clam Sauce

Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Linguine

    In a large pot of boiling salted water, add the linguine and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

  2. 2

    Drain the Pasta

    Once cooked, reserve about 1 cup of the pasta water and then drain the linguine. Set aside.

Clam Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Sauté Garlic and Red Pepper Flakes

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

  2. 4

    Add White Wine and Clams

    Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the clams, cover the skillet, and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the clams open up. Discard any clams that do not open.

  3. 5

    Combine with Linguine

    Once the clams are cooked, add the drained linguine to the skillet. Toss well to combine, adding reserved pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce.

  4. 6

    Finish and Serve

    Stir in the chopped parsley, lemon zest, and season with black pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
