Instructions
- To make the lemony breadcrumbs, cut the bread into pieces and pulse them in a food processor to form breadcrumbs. Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium heat and add the garlic and lemon zest. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then add the breadcrumbs. Cook, stirring often, until breadcrumbs are golden and toasted. Stir in the parsley and salt.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain the pasta.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a large Dutch oven other pot over medium heat. Add the leeks and sauté a few minutes until tender. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook another minute until fragrant. Add the clams, wine and lemon juice and stir to mix all of the ingredients.
- Cover the pot and cook until all of the clams open, about 5-8 minutes. Toss out any unopened clams. Stir in the parsley.
- Remove the clams from the pot and place them in a bowl. Add the pasta to the liquid in the pot and toss to combine. Season the pasta with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to a large serving bowl and arrange the clams on top. Sprinkle some of the lemony breadcrumbs on top. Serve extra breadcrumbs on the side.
