Recipe information

  • Yield

    4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

1 pound spaghetti
1/4 cup olive oil
3 shallots, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 cup chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1 1/2 cups Pinot Grigio (or other dry white wine)
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 pounds littleneck clams, scrubbed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups arugula, tough stems removed

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook for 3 minutes, until tender but not brown. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another minute. Add the wine, shrimp, and clams and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pan, and simmer until the shrimp are pink and the clams have opened, about 7 minutes. Discard any clams that have not opened.

    Step 3

    Add the spaghetti to the skillet with the seafood mixture. Add the salt and pepper and stir to combine, then gently fold in the arugula. Mound the pasta on a serving platter and serve immediately.
