directions

  • Put the clams and about 1/2 cup water in a medium skillet.
  • Cover and steam over high heat until the clams open, about 2 minute Discard any that don't open.
  • Remove the clams and reserve.
  • Strain the liquid from the pan and reserve.
  • In the same skillet, wiped dry, heat 2 Tbs. of the oil over high heat.
  • Add the scallops and sear on both sides until lightly browned, about 2 min.; remove and reserve them.
  • In the same skillet, heat the crushed garlic in the remaining 2 Tbs. oil until lightly browned.
  • Add the tomatoes and red pepper flakes and simmer over moderate heat for 15 minute.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the salt.
  • Add the haricots verts and cook until just tender; remove with a slotted spoon and add them to the tomato sauce. (Keep the water boiling.)
  • Add the scallops, the clams, and the strained clam liquid to the tomato sauce and cook until the sauce is slightly reduced, about 3 minute
  • Stir in the parsley.
  • While the sauce reduces, stir the pasta into the boiling water and cover until the water comes back to a boil.
  • Uncover and cook until the pasta just starts to become pliable but is still somewhat firm, about 2 minute
  • With tongs, lift the pasta, let it drain for a moment over the boiling water, and add it to the sauce, tossing well, to finish cooking.
  • When the pasta is al dente, transfer the pasta and sauce to a warm serving platter or individual bowls and serve immediately.
