Creamy clam sauce

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Fresh mushrooms; sliced
1 Clove garlic; chopped
2 tablespoons Butter
2 tablespoons Flour
12 ounces Chopped clams; 2 (6 oz) cans reserving liquid
1 cup Fat free half and half
¼ cup Parmesan cheese; grated
1 tablespoon Dry sherry; optional
1 tablespoon Chopped parsley
¼ teaspoon Pepper
1 pounds Cooked pasta; linguine preferred

Directions

In medium saucepan, cook mushrooms and garlic in margarine until tender.

Stir in flour to form a roux. Gradually stir in reserved clam liquid and half and half; cook and stir until thickened. Add clams, cheese, sherry if desired, parsley and pepper; heat through (do not boil). Serve over hot cooked linguine. Refrigerate left-overs.

NOTES : So many clams, so little time. This is one of Tom's favorites.

It's also good on corn chips.
