Clams With Pancetta And Scallions Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
• Add the clams, wine, and pepper, and increase the heat to high. Cover and cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the clams open, 6-10 minutes. Discard any clams that have not opened after 10 minutes.
• Use tongs to transfer the clams to a medium bowl and set aside. Scrape the contents of the pan into a large bowl. Whisk in the Parmesan, egg yolks, and egg until smooth.
• Add the warm linguine to the Parmesan cheese mixture, quickly tossing to coat evenly. Stir half of the clams into the pasta.

• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until browned, 1 minute. Add the pancetta and anchovies and cook, stirring, until browned, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the clams, then stir in the wine. Cover and cook over high heat until the clams open, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the clams to a large bowl (discard any clams that do not open). Cover to keep warm.
• Add the chicken broth to the skillet and cook until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes. Add the pasta to the skillet along with 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water. Simmer, tossing, until the pasta is well coated and the sauce thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add more cooking water to loosen, if needed. Stir in the clams and any juices. Add the parsley, red pepper flakes and lemon juice; season with salt. Divide among bowls.
