INGREDIENTS
6 oz Fresh Clams (170g)
2 oz Whole Wheat Linguine (56g)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (4.5g)
2 Garlic Cloves
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 pinch Red Pepper Flakes
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Begin by rinsing the clams under cold water to remove any grit. Set aside.
Cook the whole wheat linguine in a pot of boiling salted water, following package instructions until al dente. Drain and reserve a small amount of pasta water.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the clams to the skillet along with a splash of the reserved pasta water, cover, and let them steam for about 4-5 minutes or until the clams have opened. Discard any clams that do not open.
Add the drained linguine to the skillet, tossing gently to combine with the clams and garlic oil. If needed, add a bit more pasta water to loosen the sauce.
Stir in the fresh parsley, red pepper flakes, and a drizzle of lemon juice. Toss well to blend the flavors.
Serve the Garlic Herb Clam Linguine immediately, garnished with additional parsley or a lemon wedge if desired.
