Ingredients:
1 lb spaghetti
3 lbs small clams, scrubbed and soaked
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
red pepper flakes
salt & pepper
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
Directions:
1. Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat the oil. Add the garlic and chile pepper and cook for just about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and cook for a few minutes or just until the tomatoes begin to soften. Add the parsley, clams and wine, and cook over medium heat until the clams open, about 5 minutes.
2. Shake the pan occasionally to ensure even heat distribution. Discard any clams that do not open. Drain the pasta, reserving a small cup of pasta water. Add the pasta to the clams and mix well, adding a little of the pasta water if the mixture seems dry. Serve immediately.
