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.

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.

LINGUINE WITH CLAM SAUCE



Linguine With Clam Sauce image

Purists may object, but canned clams are a great weeknight pantry stalwart. When fresh ones are out of reach, or when you've decided you need a briny fix, the canned clam is reliable no matter the season. This recipe calls for dry vermouth, which adds a subtle herbaceous layer of flavor. (Vermouth has a long shelf life when stored properly, and it's great to have on hand to make a last-minute pan sauce.) Canned clams are already salty, so be mindful of oversalting the pasta water or the sauce. The dish is finished with lemon zest for brightness and butter for silkiness. The best part? The whole thing can be on the table in the same amount of time it takes to boil water.

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Kosher salt
1 pound linguine or other long pasta, such as linguine fini or spaghetti
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving (optional)
5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 to 1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup dry vermouth or dry white wine
2 (10-ounce) cans whole baby clams with their juices
Black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons lemon zest (from 1 to 2 lemons)
1/2 cup chopped Italian parsley
Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until 2 minutes short of al dente (it will finish cooking in the sauce). Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain pasta.
  • While the pasta cooks, make your sauce: Heat the oil in a deep-sided 12-inch skillet over medium. Add the garlic, red-pepper flakes and oregano and cook until the garlic is pale golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the vermouth and simmer until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the clams with their juices and cook until just warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes more. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
  • Add the cooked pasta directly to the skillet along with the butter and lemon zest and toss until the butter has melted and the pasta is glossy with sauce. If needed, add 1/4 cup reserved pasta water. Stir in half the parsley.
  • Serve pasta topped with a drizzle of olive oil, if desired, and the remaining parsley. Serve lemon wedges alongside if you like.

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound dried linguine
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small yellow onion, finely diced
1 jalapeno chile, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
Zest and juice of 3 limes
2 pounds Manila or other small clams, scrubbed
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon salt. Add linguine and cook until al dente, about 9 minutes.
  • While pasta is cooking, in a large saute pan, heat oil over medium. Add garlic, onion, and chile and saute until onion is translucent, a few minutes. Pour in wine and bring to a boil. Add lime zest and juice and stir well. Add clams, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and cook until they open, 3 to 5 minutes. Uncover and discard any clams that did not open. Turn off heat.
  • Drain pasta and add to clams. Cover pan and let rest 5 minutes, so pasta soaks up juices.
  • Season with salt and pepper and spoon into individual bowls. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality canned clams: Look for brands that use whole clams and pack them in brine or water, rather than oil.
  • Soak the clams before using: This will help to remove any excess salt and brininess.
  • Don't overcook the clams: They will become tough and rubbery if they are cooked for too long.
  • Add the clams to the pasta at the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from overcooking.
  • Use a light hand with the lemon juice: Too much lemon juice can overpower the other flavors in the dish.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served hot, so make sure to have everything ready before you start cooking.

Conclusion:

Linguine with canned clams, chiles, and lemon is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The briny clams, spicy chiles, and bright lemon come together to create a delicious and satisfying dish. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover clams from another meal. Serve with a side of crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce.
