LINGUINE WITH CLAMS, ROASTED TOMATOES AND CARAMELIZED GARLIC
Here is a very cool recipe that calls for roasting cherry tomatoes with garlic and oil, then using that mixture as the base of a pasta sauce heavy with clams. The juxtaposition of the slick linguine with the roasted, caramelized tomatoes and garlic, as well as the soft, briny clams, is an uncommon delight. Work hard to make sure not to overcook the pasta, so that it may finish in the sauce.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Smash and peel 8 garlic cloves; peel and finely chop the remaining 6. Toss the smashed garlic with the tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of oil, fine sea salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Spread the tomatoes out in a layer in one or two baking pans (make sure they aren't too crowded, so they don't steam) and roast tomatoes, tossing occasionally, until bursting, 15 to 20 minutes.
- In a large pot of heavily salted boiling water, cook the pasta until it is 2 minutes from being done to taste. Drain.
- Return the pasta pot to medium-high heat. Warm 4 tablespoons oil in the pot. Add the chopped garlic and red pepper flakes; cook for 30 seconds. Add the wine and let simmer 2 minutes. Stir in the roasted tomatoes and garlic. Add the clams. Cover the pot and cook until the clams open, 5 to 10 minutes. Use tongs to transfer open clams to a bowl; discard any that do not open.
- Add the pasta and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper to the sauce in the pot. Cook, tossing, until pasta is just cooked through. Return the clams to the pot and toss with the pasta. Divide mixture among serving bowls. Garnish with mint and drizzle with more oil.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in small deep saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic, 3/4 teaspoon lemon peel, and crushed red pepper. Sauté until garlic is soft, about 3 minutes. Add wine, increase heat, and boil until mixture is reduced to 1 cup, about 6 minutes. Remove sauce from heat; mix in lemon juice, anchovies, 1 tablespoon parsley, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon lemon peel. Season with coarse salt. DO AHEAD Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm before using.
- Prepare barbecue (high heat). Arrange clams on grill rack. Cover grill. Cook clams 5 minutes. Uncover and cook without turning until clams open. Transfer to rimmed baking sheet as they open, retaining juices in shells, about 5 minutes longer (discard any clams that do not open).
- Meanwhile, cook pasta in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain pasta and divide among 4 large shallow bowls.
- Arrange 12 clams in shells with juices on pasta in each bowl. Spoon sauce over. Garnish with lemon wedges and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon parsley.
Tips:
- Use fresh clams: Fresh clams are essential for this dish. Look for clams that are tightly closed and have no cracks or chips in their shells.
- Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes brings out their sweetness and flavor. Be sure to roast them until they are slightly charred.
- Caramelize the garlic: Caramelizing the garlic adds a delicious depth of flavor to the dish. Be sure to cook it slowly over low heat until it is golden brown.
- Use a good quality white wine: The white wine in this dish should be of good quality. A dry white wine, such as a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, is a good choice.
- Don't overcook the clams: Clams are very delicate and can easily be overcooked. Cook them just until they open, which will only take a few minutes.
Conclusion:
This linguine with clams, roasted tomatoes, and caramelized garlic is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The roasted tomatoes and caramelized garlic add a delicious depth of flavor to the dish, and the clams are cooked perfectly. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
