Linguine with Clam Sauce is one of my favorite meals. I often order it when we’re out at an Italian restaurant, and I make it at home, too, but with a canned sauce. This was my first go at making it on my own, and it was actually really easyand tasted SO much better!
It’s a two-pot dish, one for the clams and sauce and one for the pasta, and there are a few steps here but it’s not difficult at all. Read through the whole recipe before you get started.
We finished it off with a drizzle of EVOO to bring it all together. Here’s the recipe:
Yield: 6 servings This Linguine and Clam Sauce Recipe is so delicious and full of flavor with fresh clams and just a pinch of heat. Our new favorite pasta recipe! Prep Time 20 minutes Cook Time 1 hour Total Time 1 hour 20 minutes Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes you use depending on how much heat you like. It will spice up your dish if you go with a bigger pinch!Ingredients

Notes
This easily made 6 servings so it would be a nice dish to serve if you had company. I really like that the entire meal is in one pot. And it’s got amazing flavor with the red pepper flakes, clams, and EVOO. This is the perfect dish for a fancy meal like an anniversary dinner or Valentine’s Day celebration!

I use olive oil for so many things! One of my favorite is homemade marinara sauce with fresh tomatoes from our garden. A good olive oil makes a lot of difference in taste.

My favorite use is for a eggplant salad. I grill the eggplant and then scoop out the eggplant and add chopped red onions, tomatoes, parsley, olive oil, salt pepper and lemon.
