Recipe Introduction


Dig this, busy cooks: The tasty clam sauce will be ready in the time it takes to cook the pasta. Serve with toasted country bread with roasted garlic; baby spinach leaves tossed with your favorite vinaigrette; clementines for dessert


List of Ingredients




2 tbsp. chopped parsley, preferably Italian flat-leaf
12 oz. shucked fresh clams, chopped if large
- - Pinch of red pepper flakes, optional
12 oz. linguini
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 or 2 cloves garlic, minced
1 - can (10 oz.) recipe-ready tomatoes with Italian seasonings


Recipe



1 Cook linguini in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
2 Meanwhile, in skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until soft, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes and a pinch of red pepper flakes, if using; bring to a simmer. Stir in clams and cook for just 2 minutes -- longer cooking will toughen clams. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in parsley.
3 Drain linguini. Toss with sauce in a large shallow serving dish. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
