How to Make Brent's Favorite Clam Linguine
- Cook 8 ounces whole wheat linguine according to package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water before draining.
- While pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté for 5 minutes, until softened.
- Stir in 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Sauté for 1 minute more.
- Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 pound fresh littleneck clams (scrubbed), 1/2 cup clam juice, and 1/4 cup dry white wine.
- Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until clams open, discarding any that do not open.
- Add the cooked linguine to the skillet and toss to coat with the clam sauce. Add a little pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
- Garnish with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
