A quick, impressive pasta dish where spicy 'nduja melts into a sauce that coats briny clams and linguine. Ready in under 15 minutes — perfect for a date night or last-minute dinner party. Swap the rosé for dry white wine if that's what you have on hand.

Cook the pasta in a pot of boiling salted water according to package instructions, drain 1 minute early, and reserve a cup of pasta water.
Sort through the clams and give them a light tap. Discard any that are not tightly closed.
Tear the 'nduja into a large, cold non-stick frying pan. Add 1 tbsp olive oil, set over medium heat, and let the 'nduja melt while you finely chop the parsley (stalks and all).
Stir most of the parsley into the 'nduja pan along with the clams and rosé wine. Cover with a lid.
After 3 to 4 minutes the clams will begin to open — shake the pan until they have all opened, then remove from the heat. Discard any unopened clams.
Toss the drained pasta into the clam pan with a splash of the reserved pasta water and simmer for 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper if needed.
Serve on plates, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, and scatter over the remaining parsley.
