- Add the shrimp, season with salt and the piri-piri sauce, and sauté until the shrimp turns pink.
- In another skillet, heat the remaining olive oil, garlic, and coriander.
- Add the washed and drained clams and stir to coat.
- Pour in the white wine and cook over high heat until the clams open.
- Once the clams have opened, remove them with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Add the shrimp and pasta to the sauce in the skillet and sauté for a few minutes.
- Remove the pasta from the heat and serve with the clams on top.
Notes:
When soaking the clams, make sure to change the water every 30 minutes to remove any sand or grit.
Discard any clams that do not open during cooking.
