fregola with mussels and clams


MAKES: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 2 scallions, chopped
  • 1 fresh hot red pepper, chopped
  • 1 package (about 1 pound) fregola or fregolone
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • 2 pounds fresh mussels, scrubbed and de-bearded
  • 1 pound fresh clams, scrubbed, soaked in cold water for 30 minutes, and drained
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
 

Instructions

In a deep skillet, warm the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, scallions and hot red pepper to taste, and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the fregola, mix well to coat, and add 1½ cups of water. When the fregola has absorbed some of the water, add the wine and let simmer for 2 minutes. Add the mussels and clams, and season with salt and pepper. Cover, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until fregola is al dente and the mussels and clams are open. (You may need to add more water while cooking if the fregola starts to dry out.)
