Ingredients
- 8 ounces gluten-free linguine
- 2 pounds fresh littleneck clams, scrubbed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.25 cup fresh chopped parsley
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 0 to taste salt
- 0 to taste black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gluten-free linguine and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the butter in a large, deep skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
Step 4
Pour in the white wine and add the red pepper flakes, stirring to combine.
Step 5
Add the clams to the skillet, covering them with a lid. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the clams have opened. Discard any clams that do not open.
Step 6
Remove the lid and simmer for an additional 2 minutes to slightly reduce the sauce.
Step 7
Add the cooked linguine to the skillet and toss to coat it in the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 8
Remove from heat and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 9
Serve the linguine with clams immediately, garnishing with additional parsley if desired.
