- In a non-stick frying pan, pour in half of the olive oil and 2 cloves of finely chopped garlic.
- When the garlic begins to brown, add the previously washed and drained clams.
- Add half of the chopped coriander and the cherry tomatoes cut in half.
- Let the clams cook until they open (no more than 5 minutes).
- Once they are open, add the mixture from the frying pan to the spaghetti and stir it in.
- In the same frying pan, pour the remaining olive oil, add remaining garlic and as soon as the oil is hot, add the shrimp.
- Season with salt and the chopped chilli pepper and fry the shrimp for about 2 minutes (don't over cook them).
- Add this to the spaghetti and stir everything.
- Sprinkle with the rest of the chopped coriander and serve immediately.
