I'm going to let you in on a secret - don't be horrified but sometimes I use canned clams (GASP!). If you buy good quality canned clams, they can be quite good. Pasta in Clam Sauce 1lb Pasta 3 cloves garlic, minced 3T olive oil (additional for drizzle on top) 1/2 c white wine 8oz canned clams and juice 1/4 c chopped parsley salt/pepper Lemon wedge Bread for dipping Add garlic and olive oil to a saucepan. Heat garlic until fragrant. Add wine and simmer for 1-2 minutes. Add clams and cook until heated through. Add parsley, salt/pepper, and squeezed lemon wedge. Serve over pasta. Drizzle with olive oil. This comes together so quickly and I think the best part is sopping up the liquid with the bread. Just make sure you buy good quality canned clams.
