Easiest and yum! I added lots more fresh parsley -pepper -lemon garlic and cooked in broth but my hubs got seconds so…

It was a quick and delicious meal I made right after I got out of work. It came together fairly easily and my family loved it! I did add a small bottle of clam juice to it as I like more broth for my linguini. We also threw on some parmigiana cheese and crushed red pepper. Yum! I will be making this again! Thank you for sharing!

Added butter, 5-6 cloves of garlic, 3/4 c of parsley. Was fabulous!
Michael Moore
This has minimal ingredients and that requires the highest quality you can get. Made this and what I can say is it’s a lot of sauce for that amount of pasta. Will cut the broth in half next time. Even with dipping bread it was to much. But delicious.

Been making this recipe for years! I always increase the amount of garlic, omit the dried basil and add 3-4 lemons worth of lemon juice.
Emily Johnson
We loved this. There are just two of us so we only used only one can of clams and less pasta and there was plenty. I didn’t have fresh parsley so used dried and used roasted garlic. So much flavor, we will be making again and again. Thanks Karena

This was an excellent recipe. I added 4 cloves of garlic and 3 tablespoons of white wine to increase the flavors. I also used extra clams.
Steven Cox
It tasted great, will make it
Gregory Perry
I also added an extra 2 cloves of garlic and a cap full of lemon juice along with a half teaspoon more of white wine was great
Lisa Guerra
Very good and so easy to make. I added a little bit of fresh lemon and cracked black pepper.
Brian Johnson
Absolutely delicious! Everyone loves this recipe. I added a little lemon and fresh Parmesan cheese for added flavor, left out salt because the clams have enough sodium.
Rebecca Williams
Terrible. Way too much parsley. I couldn’t eat it.
Alexander Butler
I LOVE it just the way it was!
Gina Howe
This has been a family favorite for generations! The only change that I would possibly make would be to use fresh clams whenever they are available.
David West
I loved it!
Andrea Garrett
Love this, and prefer it to restaurant version. Much lighter. Added more garlic and parsley, and it was delicious! Very easy to prepare and will make it again….and add a pinch of red pepper flakes as well as lemon juice. Yum PS ~ froze some leftovers, and I’ll see how they turn out. I think it’ll be OK. Hope so because I’d like to have some more in a few weeks.
Tina Miller
I missed the word light in the description. The only flavor could identify was olive .
Michael Scott
I followed the recipe exactly and it was wonderful! Very easy, and the leftovers were great too. Thanks for this easy and delicious recipe!
Shelly Newman
Will not make it again. I used diced clams and it was too chewy still. We like fried clams but this recipe was lacking. I served it with crusty bread and didn’t have high expectations when I tried this recipe. Not worth it in our opinion.
