Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes, drain.

  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook anchovies in the skillet until they dissolve into the oil, about 5 minutes, add garlic and continue cooking until it is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Melt butter into the anchovies mixture. When the butter begins to bubble, stir parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes, and black pepper into the butter mixture, cook to soften the parsley, about 1 minute.

  3. Pour wine and about 3/4 of the reserved clam juice into the skillet. Place a cover on the skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Bring liquid to a simmer, add clams and continue to cook until the clams are heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour clam sauce over linguine to serve.

Recipe Note

This is a great and tasty recipe I'm sure you will enjoy. Check seasonings to taste. This has a heavy garlic and wine taste. When using a cooking wine do not add salt because there's salt already in the cooking wine. You can try sherry in place of the white wine. Top with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
