Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Clam Linguine.
Step 1
Start by heating a medium skillet over medium heat and adding a delightful mix of olive oil and butter.
Step 2
Once the butter has melted and the aroma fills the air, toss in the diced tomatoes, chopped parsley, and crushed garlic.
Step 3
Let this vibrant mixture simmer for about five minutes, stirring occasionally to blend the flavors.
Step 4
If you notice the sauce thickening too much, don’t hesitate to add a splash of clam juice to achieve your preferred consistency.

While your sauce is bubbling away, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil.

Gently add the fresh linguine pasta and cook it for about three minutes, or until it reaches that perfect al dente texture.
Step 7
Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside, letting it rest for a moment.
Step 8
Now, return to your skillet and add the cooked linguine along with a can of minced clams, juice included.
Step 9
Stir everything together gently, allowing the heat to meld the flavors for another two to three minutes.
Step 10
When it’s all warmed through, serve your delicious creation immediately, and don’t forget to sprinkle on some freshly grated Parmesan cheese for that extra touch of indulgence.
