In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté garlic, crushed red pepper flakes, and parsley with the Butter. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add clams and wine. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook until clam shells open, 7 to 10 minutes. (Discard any unopened clams.) Add Lemon Fused Olive Oil, half of the juice from the lemon and cooked linguine and toss until combined. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with lemon wedges.
