- Boil Rice Noodles (or any gluten free or regular) as package directs. Rinse with cold water and set aside.
- Heat just enough olive oil over medium high-ish heat to sautee shallot. Sautee for a couple minutes just to heat up.
- Add garlic and red pepper flakes. Sautee a minute or two till garlic THINKS it might turn brown
- Add cup of wine, clams, and shrimp. It should be steaming and boiling COVER POT
- Check in a couple few minutes. I cant leave anything alone so I do this about every 2 minutes.
- When Clams are all open and shrimp is pink add butter and noodles to the pot
- Stir carefully to combine and cover for 2-3 min again
- Remove lid, let still cook add splash of cream. Stir to incorporate
- This will still look soupy and it might stay that way. Dont worry its still delicious.
