I had to make a couple of changes. I didn't have ziti so subbed fettucine (which worked very well, lol). Also I had a bunch of shucked soft shell clams in the freezer, so I used those instead of the canned clams. Roughly chopped them and used some of the clam juice we had frozen also. Really great recipe for clam sauce. Both DH and I enjoyed this alot. And did I mention its really easy??!! Thanks!

One word - Fabulous! I LOVE the simplicity of the dish. In the length of time it takes to cook the pasta, the meal is ready. This is one of the best 15 minute meals, I've ever had. I can also see adding scallops and/or shrimp. Maybe a little sundried tomatoes ... LOTS of possibilities! I will be making this dish often!

Wonderfully simple and yummy! I used 2 tbsp of butter instead of the 3 tbsp of oil, but otherwise stuck to the recipe. I think this would work well with linguine as well. Thanx for sharing!

This was really tasty! I used olive oil instead of the canola, and I bought a 16-oz. container of fresh, chopped clams, which I used instead of the canned. I also used 16 oz. of ziti, and there was plenty of sauce for it. Great dinner! Made for Potluck Tag Game.
