salt and pepper |
2 1/2 dozen littleneck clams |
1 (16 ounce) box linguine, cooked just short of al dente |
1/2 cup grated pecorino romano cheese |
hot red pepper flakes |
Directions:
1. Preheat grill to high. Place a large aluminum baking pan directly on grate. In the pan place butter and chopped onion and saute, stirring frequently until onion is translucent.
2. Add the garlic,half the parsley, and half the basil and saute for a few minutes more until the garlic just starts to turn color.
3. Add wine, 1 can of the chicken broth, salt and pepper and the clams. Lower heat to medium, close the grill checking every few minutes and tossing the clams around for about 15 to 20 minutes, until clams open.
4. Add pasta the remainder of the parsley, basil, and broth, grated cheese and shake in as much hot pepper flakes to the heat you desire.
