For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry white wine to the sauce during the simmering process. If you prefer a creamier sauce, stir in a tablespoon of cream cheese or a dollop of heavy cream at the end. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your spice preference. A little goes a long way! Fresh parsley can be substituted for dried parsley for a more vibrant flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
11 mins
In a large pot, bring lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add the linguine and cook until al dente, approximately 11 minutes. Drain well, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
02
Step
2 mins
In a small bowl, meticulously combine the dried minced onion, seafood seasoning, dried oregano, dried basil, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. This aromatic blend will form the heart of your clam sauce.
03
Step
6 mins
Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion mixture and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute, being careful not to burn. Introduce the drained mushrooms, stirring to coat them evenly with the spiced oil. Add the chopped clams along with their juice. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low and let it meld for approximately 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to fully develop.

Step
2 mins
In a large bowl, toss the cooked linguine with the clam sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash or two of the reserved pasta water to achieve the desired consistency. Garnish generously with dried parsley before serving.
