Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil spaghetti in salted water until just under al dente, about 7 minutes. Drain well.

  2. Step 2

    Tear two large sheets of parchment paper. Divide pasta between them, then top with shrimp and clams.

  3. Step 3

    Sprinkle garlic over seafood. Pour half the wine over each packet. Squeeze lemon juice over top.

  4. Step 4

    Fold parchment tightly to seal, crimping edges. Place packets on a baking sheet.

  5. Step 5

    Bake at 425°F for 6 minutes. Clams should open and shrimp should turn pink.

  6. Step 6

    Carefully open packets at the table—watch for steam. Discard any unopened clams. Drizzle with olive oil.
