Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Linguine
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1.5 cups Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 1 lb Littleneck clams, scrubbed clean
- 0.5 lb Raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
2. In a large, deep skillet or sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
3. Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and release their juices.
4. Pour in the white wine and stir, allowing the mixture to simmer for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
5. Add the littleneck clams to the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the clams have opened. Discard any clams that do not open.
6. Stir in the shrimp and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and are fully cooked.
7. Add the cooked linguine to the skillet, along with the reserved pasta water, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Toss everything together to coat the pasta evenly in the sauce.
8. Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy!
