LIDIA'S LINGUINI WITH BROCCOLI AND CLAM SAUCE



Lidia's Linguini With Broccoli and Clam Sauce image

I am posting this recipe by Lidia Matticchio Bastianich by request of one of the members of the Italian cooking forum. I have never had a chance to try it myself but it looks and sounds fabulous, just like everything Lidia prepares on her TV show. I am guessing about the preparation time so if anyone tries this recipe, please let me know how long it took to prepare!

Garlic and oregano enhance the seafood flavor of this delicious main dish. "An Italian friend of my mom's passed on the recipe to her, and I began preparing it when I was 14," writes Kelli Soike of Tallahassee, Florida. "For convenience, it can be made in advance...and leftovers are just as good."

LINGUINE WITH WHITE CLAM AND BROCCOLI SAUCE



Linguine with White Clam and Broccoli Sauce image

You can chop the garlic if you like, but I prefer slices. They are mellower in flavor and become part of the texture of the dish. In most pasta dishes the idea is to make just enough sauce to coat the pasta lightly. When clam sauce is served with linguine, however, there should be a little extra broth. Other hard-shelled clams, such as Manila or butter clams, make a good substitute, but I love littleneck clams for this sauce. With this dish, as with many pasta dishes using long, thin pasta shapes, I prefer to cook the pasta very al dente and finish it in the sauce. It's a balancing act-determining when the pasta is ready and the sauce is the right consistency-but you can always hold the pasta or the sauce for a minute or two, while the other one catches up.

Yield makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Salt
3 cups broccoli florets
36 littleneck clams
1 pound linguine
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
1/2 teaspoon crushed hot red pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Cook the broccoli in a large saucepan of boiling salted water just until it is softened a little bit, about 2 minutes. Drain it well and cool under cold running water. Drain completely, then chop the broccoli coarsely.
  • Scrub and shuck the clams according to the directions on page 7, reserving the liquid. Strain the liquid, chop the clams, and combine them with the liquid.
  • Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in an 8-quart pot over high heat. Stir the linguine into the boiling water. Return to a boil, stirring frequently. Cook the pasta, semi-covered, stirring occasionally, until not quite done al dente, about 6 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Scatter the garlic over the oil and cook, shaking the pan, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the blanched broccoli and crushed red pepper and cook until the broccoli is sizzling, about 2 minutes. Pour in the clams and their liquid and bring to a boil. Ladle about 1/2 cup of pasta-cooking water into the skillet. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat so the sauce is at a lively simmer. Cook until the broccoli is tender, about 4 minutes.
  • If the skillet is large enough to accommodate the sauce and pasta, fish the pasta out of the boiling water with a large wire skimmer and drop it directly into the sauce in the skillet. If not, drain the pasta, return it to the pot, and pour in the sauce. Bring the sauce and pasta to a boil, stir in the parsley, and check the seasoning, adding salt and crushed red pepper if necessary. Cook, stirring, until the pasta is done and there is enough sauce to coat the pasta generously but still form a small pool in the bottom of the pan, 1 to 2 minutes. Divide the pasta among warmed bowls, spooning some of the sauce from the pan and drizzling some of the remaining olive oil over each serving.
