Ingredients

• ✓ red thai chile pepper
• water
• salt
• olive oil
• garlic
• clam
• white wine
• spaghetti
• lemon zest
• flat-leaf parsley
• black pepper

Instructions

1. 1 Bring water to a boil in a stockpot; add salt. Reduce heat to a simmer.
2. 2 Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add oil, followed by chile pepper and garlic. Cook and stir gently until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove garlic and chile pepper; discard. Add clams to the fragrant oil.
3. 3 Pour wine over the clams and cover immediately. Let simmer until clams have opened, about 7 minutes. Remove clams using a slotted spoon to a large bowl. Cover to avoid losing their steam. Discard any unopened clams.
4. 4 Pour four ladles of salted water into the skillet with the juice of the clams. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add spaghetti; move around with a pasta fork to keep from sticking together. Cook, adding a ladle or two of salted water as needed to keep spaghetti barely covered, until pasta is tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Add clams and sprinkle in lemon zest. Give the skillet a hefty toss to gently mix the clams in the thickened sauce.
5. 5 Divide into four pasta bowls. Cover with parsley and serve immediately with empty plates on the side for the shells while eating.
