This dish combines the succulence of fresh clams with the tangy zest of cherry peppers, all brought together with a touch of white wine and garlic. Here's how to create this delightful meal:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound fresh clams, rinsed
- 1 pound fresh linguine pasta
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon
- ½ cup white wine
- ⅓ cup cherry peppers, seeded and sliced
- Good quality olive oil (Bonacci recommended)
- Sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped
- Parmesan cheese, for shaving
Directions:
-
Prep the Grill: Preheat your Arteflame grill to a medium-high temperature.
-
Cook the Garlic and Wine Mixture: In a cast iron skillet on the hot part of the grill, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and let it sauté until fragrant. Pour in the white wine and let the mixture come to a simmer.
-
Steam the Clams: To the simmering garlic and wine, add a pinch of sea salt and the clams. Cover the skillet with a lid. Cook until the clams open up, indicating they are cooked. Discard any clams that do not open.
-
Add the Cherry Peppers: Once the clams have opened, remove the lid and toss in the cherry peppers and a handful of chopped parsley for added flavor.
-
Cook the Pasta: While the clams are cooking, boil water in a large pot on the grill. Cook the fresh linguine pasta in the boiling water until al dente, typically about a minute for fresh pasta. Drain and toss the pasta with 1 teaspoon of high-quality olive oil.
-
Combine and Serve: Transfer the cooked linguine to a serving bowl. Pour the clam and cherry pepper sauce over the pasta. Top with freshly shaved Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of black pepper. Serve with a wedge of lemon on the side.
