Ingredients
Method
In large deep heavy skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat; cook pancetta, stirring often, just until turning golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to plate.
Drain off all but 1 tbsp (15 mL) fat from pan. Add garlic, 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the parsley and hot pepper flakes; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Pour in clam juice and wine; bring to boil. Add clams; cover and cook until clams open, about 5 minutes. Discard any that do not open.
Meanwhile, in large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until tender but firm, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and add to clam mixture along with pancetta; toss to coat. Serve sprinkled with remaining parsley.
