Share This Recipe

SERVES: 4

COOK TIME: 12 Min

Our recipe for Linguine with White Clam Sauce is inspired by the flavors of the New England seaside. Bacon, tomatoes, and fresh herbs add a special flair to this easy seafood recipe.

What You'll Need

1 pound linguine
1/4 pound bacon, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes
2 cans (6-1/2 ounces each) chopped clams, drained with liquid reserved
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

What to Do

Prepare the linguine according to the package directions.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside to drain on paper towels. Drain off all but 2 tablespoons fat from the pan.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the garlic to the skillet, and saute for 30 seconds. Add the wine, tomatoes, and reserved clam juice. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
Add the clams, parsley, salt, and crushed red pepper. Cook for 1 more minute then remove from the heat.
Toss the sauce with the linguine, sprinkle with the chopped bacon, and serve.
