Tuscan Style Capellini With Clams And Garlic Recipes

Steps:

• Cook pasta as directed on package, omitting salt.
• Meanwhile, heat dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic; cook and stir 2 min. Add tomatoes; cook 5 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally.
• Drain pasta. Add to tomato mixture; mix lightly. Sprinkle with cheese and basil.

Steps:

• Scrub clams under cold running water, discard any that do not close when tapped.
• In large heavy saucepan, cook garlic and oil over medium high heat for 1 minute, add wine and clams.
• Cover and cook until clams open (time will vary from 2 to 10 minutes depending on size of clams, discard any that do not open).
• Meanwhile, in large pot of boiling water, cook capellini until al dente, tender but firm; drain.
• Pour clam mixture over hot pasta and toss with parsley.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil for the pasta.
• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat, then add the garlic and saute until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the clams, white wine, and stock and cover. Allow to boil until the clams open, about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, boil the capellini in the water until al dente. When all the clams have opened, discard the unopened ones. Stir the capellini and three tablespoons of parsley into the pan juices. Season with salt and pepper. Serve on a platter with the clams and sprinkle with remaining parsley.

• Meanwhile, heat oil and butter together in a large skillet. Add shallots and 3/4 cup roasted garlic cloves saute 3 minutes, until shallots are soft. Add beer and bring to a simmer. Add clams, cover and simmer until shells open, about 5 minutes. Using tongs, remove 12 clams and reserve for another meal. Drain capellini, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking water and add to clams in skillet, adding the reserved 1/2 cup pasta if necessary to "loosen" the sauce. Simmer 1 minute to heat through. Remove from heat and top with parsley and Parmesan. Serve with a mixed green salad and bottled dressing, if desired.
