In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the

pieces, discarding the claw shells.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high

pieces, meat side down, and cook, turning once, until
the meat is browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes.
Transfer the pieces to a plate and return the skillet to
medium-high heat. Add the thyme, chiles, and garlic and
cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Pour in the
wine and cook until reduced by half, about 4 minutes.
Add the pasta to the skillet along with the reserved
pasta water, whole and chopped claw meat, tail pieces,
coral (if using), basil, and parsley. Season to taste
with salt and white pepper, gently toss to combine, then
remove from the heat and transfer the pasta to a serving
platter. Grate pecorino over the pasta and serve hot.
