Preparation

Step 1

1. Place a 12-inch high-sided sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil; swirl to coat. Stir in garlic; cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add 1/2 cup water, wine, and clams; cover and cook 6 minutes or until clams open. Discard any unopened shells. Remove clams with a slotted spoon to a plate. Place 12 clams on another plate; cover to keep warm. Remove meat from remaining clams; coarsely chop, and add to plate. Re-cover; keep warm.
2. Return pan to medium-high heat. Add clam juice, 2 3/4 cups water, and pasta; bring to a boil. Cook 10 minutes or until pasta is done, stirring frequently. Stir in salt, 3 tablespoons oil, parsley, chile, and chopped clams; toss. Divide pasta among 4 bowls; top each with 3 clams in the shell. Serve with lemon wedges.
