Great, and even better the next day. I used baby clams rather than minced.

If I could rate this more than 5 I would. My family loved this. Made as stated as far as ingredients but I did add an extra can of clams and I did use chopped clams. Since everyone fought over the clams, I will put in 4 cans next time. I also added six cloves of garlic (per our taste). I did have a little bit of noodles leftover but there was nothing else leftover. Served with asiago garlic bread and it was perfect for sopping up the sauce. Thanks so much Peg. Great meal and quick to make!

If 4 & 1/2 stars were an option, that is what I would rate this recipe. However after reading some of the past reviews, this is how I prepared the dish: I used 1 tbls fresh parsley and 1 tbls fresh basil. I prepared the sauce as directed by using 1/2 of the butter suggested and adding some white wine and a little fresh squeezed lemon juice. I sauted some mushrooms on the side with the remaining half of butter and added some italian seasonings. Half way through the simmering process of the sauce, I added a dash of red pepper flakes (will add just a tad more the next time I make this) with the sauted mushrooms. I tossed all with a garlic and parsley flavored linguini cooked al dante. This was very, very good and very easy. I will make it again.

GREAT recipe. My family LOVES it, so this has become a regular dish in our household. I usually add a little extra fresh grated parm when tossing, but really, the recipe is great as is.

This was too bland. I'm not saying the was taste bad, it was just boring. I'm a New Englander and use to good clam sauce. Try adding a little white wine and herbs or even red pepper flakes.

Delicious recipe. I also increased the garlic and used basil in place of parsley. I served this with the Basil Shrimp recipe from this site. The aroma was so tempting my guests could hardly wait to dig in!

this was the first time that i had ever attempted making linguine and clam sauce and i thought that it was pretty good and my husband loved it. the next time though it think that i would do the following: add a little more garlic, either make 1 1/2 times the amount of sauce or twice the amount of sauce and maybe add some lemon.

Very good! I left out the oil to cut down on the calories and it turned out great! I also used chopped clams instead of minced. I will be making this a lot!

Absolutely delicious. I added a little white wine just because I like it, but I doubt it was necessary. This dish is simple, quick and very, very good.

I have been making this for years, with the exception of adding butter. I use two cans of Whole clams (I love clams), minced clams just don't do it for me. I also add parsley, oregano, garlic salt and garlic powder. It is wonderful. Thanks Peg for sharing your recipe.....

My husband and I love this. It is very easy and delicious. I only use half of the oil and butter and find it makes no difference in the flavor.

I doubled the sauce (but not the linguine) and omitted the oil entirely, using only 1/4 cup (total) of "fake" butter. I also added lemon juice, basil and white wine. This turned out very nicely. Thanks Peg!
