Ingredients:
400g Linguine noodles
500g Clams
3 cloves Garlic
2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
A handful Parsley
150 ml (optional) White wine (optional)
To taste Salt
To taste Pepper
Instructions:
- Cook the linguine in salted boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain.
- In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and red pepper flakes, sauté for about a minute until fragrant but not browned.
- Add the clams and wine (if using) to the pan, cover, and cook until the clams open. This usually takes 5-7 minutes. Discard any unopened clams.
- Remove the clams from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Increase the heat to high and add the cooked linguine to the pan. Toss everything together in the olive oil garlic sauce, adding reserved pasta water as needed for sauciness.
- Season with salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix well and cook for another minute or two until everything is well combined.
- Serve immediately, garnished with more parsley if desired.
