CREAMY CLAM LINGUINE
This is a fast but special entree that I made up when my sons were home from touring. They loved it so much that they request it whenever they're home. You can use the juice from the canned clams, but bottled clam juice gives a better flavor to this dish.-Margie Clevenger, Bowling Green, Kentucky

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook according to the package directions for al dente. Be careful not to overcook; the pasta should have plenty of bite to it. Drain and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter. (Using both olive oil and butter allows you to heat the mixture at a higher heat before it starts to brown.) Add the clams and garlic and stir together. Cook for 3 minutes. Pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Cook until the sauce is reduced and less watery, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and stir to melt. Reduce the heat and squeeze in the lemon juice. Pour in the cream and sprinkle in the parsley. This is a very decadent dish! Add some salt and freshly ground black pepper, then stir well and taste for seasoning. Add a splash of reserved clam juice if the sauce needs thinning. Cook over low heat until heated through, about 3 minutes more.
- Pour the pasta into a serving bowl. Pour on the sauce straight from the skillet, including all the luscious juice, and toss to combine. At this point your kitchen smells like heaven. Top with freshly grated Parmesan and garnish with lemon slices.

CLAM SAUCE WITH LINGUINE
This is a super fast and easy recipe. One of my favorites. Even my kids love it. Though sometimes I use 1 1/2 pounds of noodles. Fettuccine can also be used. Tastes even better with fresh baked rolls or French bread and a garden salad. For the special occasion have a nice glass of red wine with it.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and utensils ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
- Fresh Clams: For the best flavor, use fresh clams whenever possible. If you can't find fresh clams, frozen clams can also be used. Just be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- Sautéing the Clams: When sautéing the clams, be careful not to overcook them. Clams are delicate and can easily become tough if overcooked. Cook them just until they open, about 2-3 minutes.
- Deglazing the Pan: After sautéing the clams, deglaze the pan with white wine. This will help to dissolve any browned bits and add flavor to the sauce.
- Adding the Cream: When adding the cream, be sure to use heavy cream for a rich and creamy sauce. You can also use half-and-half or milk if you prefer a lighter sauce.
- Seasoning the Sauce: Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as basil, oregano, or thyme, to taste.
- Cooking the Linguine: Cook the linguine according to the package directions. Be sure to drain the linguine well before adding it to the sauce.
- Combining the Sauce and Linguine: Once the sauce and linguine are cooked, combine them and toss to coat. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or basil.
