Linguine with White Clam Sauce

Weeknight-friendly Italian cooking: Linguine with White Clam Sauce comes together in 25 minutes with linguine, clams, and not much else. Each serving lands at 570 calories with 30g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. No specialty equipment and nothing hard to find at a regular grocery store.

Ingredients

• 12 oz Linguine
• 2 lb Clams
• 1/2 cup White wine
• 5 cloves Garlic
• 1/4 cup Olive oil
• 1/2 cup Parsley
• 1/2 Lemon
• 1/2 tsp Chili flakes

Steps

1. Scrub the clams and discard any that stay open when tapped — dead clams are not negotiable.
2. Sizzle the sliced garlic and chili in the olive oil 2 minutes until pale gold.
3. Add the wine and clams, cover, and steam 6 to 8 minutes, until every shell yawns open; discard any that stay shut.
4. Toss the al dente linguine through the pan with a ladle of pasta water.
5. Shower with parsley and lemon, and serve with the shells on — half the pleasure is the digging.
