Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
1 pound linguine
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup finely chopped shallots, from 2 shallots
6 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc (see note)
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 pounds Littleneck clams (40 to 45), scrubbed
¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon lemon zest, from 1 lemon, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon lemon juice, from 1 lemon, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • In large pot over high heat, bring 4 quarts of water and 2 tablespoons of kosher salt to a boil. Add the linguine and cook according to the package directions until just shy of al dente (the pasta should still be firm to the bite since it will cook another minute or two in the sauce).
  • Meanwhile, in a very large sauté pan over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil until hot but not smoking. Add the shallots and garlic and sauté until just golden, about 30 seconds. Add the wine, red pepper flakes, ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, clams, and ¼ cup of the parsley; bring to a simmer and cook, covered, until the clams open, 6 to 8 minutes. Discard any unopened clams.
  • Reserving ½ cup of the cooking water, drain the linguine in a colander (do not rinse). Add the pasta to the sauté pan with the clams. (If you don't have room for everything in one pan, transfer the clams to a plate and cover to keep warm. When ready to serve, add them back to the pasta on a serving platter). Increase the heat to medium and cook the linguini with the clams, tossing occasionally, until the pasta absorbs most of the sauce and is just tender, 1 to 2 minutes. If necessary, add some of reserved cooking water to keep moist. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of parsley; toss to coat. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt, lemon zest and/or lemon juice, if necessary. Transfer to a serving dish or bowls and serve.
  • Note: When cooking with wine, select a bottle that is inexpensive (under $10) but still good enough to drink. Avoid "cooking wines," which are salty and include additives.

LINGUINE AND CLAMS

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup white wine
3 dozen littleneck clams, scrubbed well
1 dozen mussels, scrubbed well
1/4 cup olive oil
2 anchovy fillets, chopped
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound dried linguine
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped to a paste
Pinch red chile flakes
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons creme fraiche
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus parsley leaves for garnish
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the broth: Bring the wine and 1 cup water to a boil in a stockpot over high heat. Add the clams and cook until opened, about 5 minutes. Remove clams with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Discard any clams that do not open. When cool enough to handle, remove the clams from the shell and coarsely chop.
  • Bring the broth back to a boil, add the mussels and cook until the mussels open, discarding any that do not open. These mussels are added just to flavor the stock. After you remove them, eat them or reserve for another use (remove from the shell, store in a container with a tight fitting lid and refrigerate for up to 1 day).
  • Strain the cooking liquid through a mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth into a bowl. You should have 2 cups of liquid.
  • For the breadcrumbs: Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat until it begins to shimmer, add the anchovies and cook until melted into the oil. Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring constantly, until lightly golden brown, and then season with salt and pepper.
  • For the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine to al dente according to package instructions. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and then drain the pasta well.
  • Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and chile flakes, and cook until soft, 1 minute. Add the clam broth and cook until reduced by half.
  • Whisk in the butter, creme fraiche and chopped clams, and cook until thickened. Add the basil, parsley, oregano and zest, and season with salt and pepper. Add the pasta and cook, tossing constantly, until the pasta is coated. If the mixture is too dry, add some of the reserved pasta water.
  • Divide the pasta among the bowls, and top with some of the breadcrumbs. Garnish with parsley leaves.

LINGUINE WITH CANNED CLAMS, CHILES AND LEMON



Linguine with Canned Clams, Chiles and Lemon image

This spicy take on linguine with clam sauce uses affordable tinned clams for a quick and inexpensive version of the restaurant fave that comes together quickly. If your store carries them, opt for more flavorful smoked clams packed in oil instead of the brined version; they're priced about the same, but the smoked clams have a deeper, toastier flavor that works well with the chile flakes and toasted garlic.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound linguine or spaghetti
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 large lemon, zested
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
Three 3-ounce cans smoked clams in oil or two 10-ounce cans chopped or whole clams in brine, drained (see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup dry vermouth or sherry (optional; substitute chicken or seafood broth or additional pasta water)
1 small handful of parsley, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot and season with 1 tablespoon salt. Add the pasta and cook 3 minutes less than called for on the directions on the box. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, then drain.
  • While the pasta cooks, combine the olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and the garlic starts to sizzle, remove from the heat and allow the garlic to toast. Juice the lemon into the skillet then add the butter, clams, vermouth, 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water and the cooked pasta. Stir to evenly combine, then turn the heat up to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced and fully coats the pasta, 3 to 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the salt as needed and add black pepper, the lemon zest and parsley. Use tongs to toss then divide among bowls and serve immediately.

LINGUINE WITH LEMON CLAM SAUCE



Linguine With Lemon Clam Sauce image

This is an easy, wonderfully flavoured pasta dish that can be whipped up in no time for an intimate dinner for two. Recipe is easily doubled. I use my non-stick wok as it is big enough for tossing the pasta and sauce together in and the sauce gets distributed better throughout that way.

Tips:

  • Drain the clams well before using them. This will help to prevent the pasta from becoming watery.
  • Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Al dente pasta is the best choice for this dish.
  • Sauté the garlic and chili peppers in olive oil until fragrant. This will help to release their flavor.
  • Add the clams, white wine, and lemon zest to the pan and cook until the clams are heated through. Be careful not to overcook the clams, or they will become tough.
  • Stir in the cooked pasta, parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Conclusion:

This linguine with canned clams, chiles, and lemon is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please everyone at the table.
