Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta, following the package instructions, until al dente.
Meanwhile, warm 1/2 cup of the olive oil in a high-sided saucepan set over medium-high heat.
Add the garlic and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
Add the wine and allow it to cook away slightly, about 1 minute.
Add the clams and their juice, and season with salt and pepper.
Cook until the broth froths to a level of 1 to 2 inches.
Remove from the heat.
Stir in the parsley.
Drain the pasta and toss in a serving bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Distribute evenly among six dinner plates.
Top with equal portions of the sauce, and serve immediately.
