LINGUINE WITH CLAMS



Linguine with Clams image

Linguine with clams in a garlicky white wine sauce makes an easy and elegant Italian pasta dinner.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

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.

CLAM PASTA WITH BASIL AND HOT PEPPER



Clam Pasta With Basil and Hot Pepper image

The beauty of this dish is that the clams can be steamed in the time it takes to cook the pasta, so the whole affair can be put together quite rapidly. High heat and a covered pot will have the shells open in minutes.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup basil leaves
1 cup Italian parsley leaves
3 garlic cloves, smashed to a paste
1/4 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper
1 pound bucatini, spaghetti or linguine
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon crushed fennel seed, optional
1/2 teaspoon peperoncino (hot red-pepper flakes)
4 pounds small clams, such as little neck or Manila, rinsed of sand
1/2 cup dry white wine
Basil leaves, for garnish
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Make the purée: Grind basil and parsley together in a food processor. (Alternatively, hand chop herbs or pound them in a mortar.) Add garlic paste and 1/4 cup olive oil and pulse to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a rapid boil. Add pasta and cook according to package directions, taking care to keep pasta quite al dente. It's best to use a timer, and drain pasta as soon as it's done.
  • While pasta is cooking, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed wide pot with a lid over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic, fennel seed if using and pepperoncino, and let sizzle without browning, about 1 minute. Add clams, stirring to coat with a wooden spoon. Raise heat to high, add wine and put on the lid. Cook, covered, until all clams have opened, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn off heat. (Discard any clams that fail to open.)
  • Add cooked pasta and basil purée to pot and toss gently to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with basil leaves and lemon wedges.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds small clams, such as cockles or manila clams
Kosher salt
1 pound dried linguine
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for drizzling
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 shallots, minced

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

LINGUINE AND CLAMS WITH FRESH RED SAUCE



Linguine and Clams With Fresh Red Sauce image

This weeknight clam pasta comes together easily under 30 minutes without compromising flavor. Canned whole clams, packed in valuable clam juices, are the pantry hero. Opt for whole canned clams, since they're more tender and delicate than the chopped or minced varieties. The key to achieving the most seafood flavor is finishing the pasta right in the clam sauce, so that the pasta absorbs all of the briny flavors as it cooks. The sauce gets a nice fresh boost from the addition of sweet cherry tomatoes, while Parmesan and butter stirred in at the end create a rich, silky sauce.

Provided by Kay Chun

Categories     pastas, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound linguine
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound cherry tomatoes
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 (6-ounce) cans whole clams, juices reserved
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup chopped fresh curly or flat-leaf parsley, plus more for garnish
Red-pepper flakes, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook the pasta according to package directions until 3 minutes shy of al dente. (It will finish cooking in the sauce; pasta should be toothsome but not crunchy.) Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
  • Meanwhile, once pasta is cooking, in a large skillet, heat oil over medium. Add tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they soften and start to pop, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add reserved clam juice (you should have about 1 cup) and stir to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Add sauce, pasta, 1/2 cup of the pasta water and the butter back to the large pot, and cook, stirring vigorously, until sauce is thickened and pasta is al dente, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup more pasta water if a thinner sauce is desired.
  • Turn off the heat and stir in the clams, cheese and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide pasta among bowls and garnish with cheese, parsley, black pepper and red-pepper flakes, if using.

Tips:

  • Use fresh clams: Fresh clams will have a briny, sweet flavor that will elevate the dish. If you can't find fresh clams, frozen clams are a good substitute.
  • Soak the clams: Soaking the clams in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking will help to remove any sand or grit.
  • Use a variety of peppers: Different types of peppers will add different flavors to the dish. For a mild flavor, use sweet peppers. For a more spicy flavor, use red chili peppers.
  • Don't overcook the clams: Clams only need to be cooked for a few minutes, or they will become tough and rubbery.
  • Serve immediately: Linguine with clams and peppers is best served immediately, while the clams are still tender and juicy.

Conclusion:

Linguine with clams and peppers is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The briny, sweet flavor of the clams pairs perfectly with the spicy peppers and the al dente linguine. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
