You probably won't have to salt the sauce itself since the clams are so briny; taste right before serving.

Steps:
- Cook fregola in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until very al dente, 6-8 minutes; drain.
- Meanwhile, heat 1/2 cup oil in a Dutch oven or other large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Carefully add wine; bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
- Add clams, cover, and cook, transferring clams to a bowl as they open (discard any that do not open), 6-8 minutes. Add fregola to cooking liquid in pot and cook, stirring, until fregola is tender and sauce is slightly thickened (there should still be plenty of liquid), about 2 minutes. Return clams to pot and cook until warmed through.
- Divide fregola and clams among bowls, drizzle with oil, and top with parsley and lemon zest.
