Amazing White Clam Sauce image

I got this recipe from an old boyfriend, and have modified it over the years. My husband and I have this at least every two weeks with a big loaf of garlic bread. It's very easy, but very delicious and filling.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 ¾ cups half-and-half cream
3 (6.5 ounce) cans minced clams, drained with juice reserved
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese for topping
1 (8 ounce) package dried linguine pasta

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and red pepper flakes, and cook stirring constantly until onion is tender. Add garlic, and cook for a couple of minutes, just until fragrant. Pour in the reserved clam juice, and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
  • Gradually stir the half-and-half cream into the skillet, and simmer for another 20 minutes, but do not boil. At this time, I like to prepare my linguine and garlic bread.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add linguine pasta, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until al dente.
  • Add clams to the sauce, and cook just until clams are heated through, or they will become tough and chewy. Remove from heat, and serve over linguine pasta. Top with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese.
