Karens Spicy Clam Linguine Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep saute pan over medium heat. Add garlic, and cook until just golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add pasta and 2 1/2 teaspoons salt. Cook until al dente; drain, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, add clam juice and wine to saute pan, and cook until liquid is reduced by a third, 3 to 5 minutes. Add clams, capers, and red-pepper flakes; cover, and cook until clams open, 10 to 12 minutes; discard unopened clams. Whisk in butter and parsley. Toss with pasta. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• Soak the clams in cool water for about 30 minutes to expel the sand. Gently scrub the shells to remove any debris.
• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water (it should taste like the sea) to a boil. Add the pasta to the water and cook until slightly less than al dente.
• In a large braiser or sauté pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, shallots, anchovies and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until the shallots are soft, about 3 minutes.
• Add the clams in a single layer, along with a sprinkle of the parsley and the wine. Cover the pan with a lid and steam, shaking the pan occasionally, until the clams open up, 4 to 5 minutes. Discard any clams that remain closed. Transfer the clams to a bowl and set aside.
• Strain or transfer the pasta and add it directly to the pan with the clam sauce along with a drizzle of olive oil, tossing to combine. Let the pasta finish cooking with the sauce until the sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the remaining parsley to the pan and toss, then top with the clams and another drizzle of oil. Serve.

Steps:

• Pick over the clams and discard any that are damaged or stay open when pressed shut, then rinse them in cold water. Bring a large pan of water to the boil, add a pinch of salt and drop in the linguine. Cook for 1 min less than pack instructions.
• Heat the oil in a large, lidded sauté pan over a medium heat. Add the nduja and cook for 3 mins, breaking up the sausage with the back of the spoon so that it melts into the oil. Stir in the garlic, cook until fragrant, then turn up the heat to high. Add the clams and kale, pour in the wine and put on the lid. Cook for 2-3 mins, shaking the pan occasionally, until the clams open and the kale wilts.
• Remove any clams that aren't open, then drain the linguine and toss through the sauce. Stir in the lemon zest and season well with black pepper. Serve immediately with parmesan and lemon wedges for squeezing.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and drained clams; cook and stir for about 5 minutes. Season with oregano, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Pour in the reserved clam juice. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and serve over pasta. Garnish with Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, chili and oregano to skillet. Sauté until onion is tender, about 6 minutes. Add clams with their juices and cream. Simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about 4 minutes. Add pasta and 4 tablespoons basil; toss until sauce coats pasta, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer pasta to large bowl. Sprinkle with remaining basil.
