This is a quick dish recipe I fondly use when my family needs to be fed and fed quick, scout meetings and after-school activities has left me nil time to prep and cook, so I cam up with this Fine Italian style dish that takes less than 45 min to prep and serve. Since I have 5 Kids, we always have leftovers, and since I am a Leftover Gourmet (or so I like to think), I will include leftover stuff in my recipe, replace with whatever you may have available. < less
Takes about 1 hour, start to finish. Serves 7 People, Twice
 

Ingredients

Ingredients:

 

2 packages of Pasta, Any Kind, I like to use Linguini Style, but my kids love it with Spiral Noodles

1 Can of Clam Sauce (14oz)

1 Bar (8tbsp) of Non Sweetened Butter

2 Whole “Beef-Steak” Tomatoes – Firm

2 pieces Fresh Garlic

½ Onion Red or White

Salt

Olive Oil

 

Leftover Component: 5 Fully Cooked Italian Sausages leftover from Yesterday’s Bar-B-Q

 

Directions

Cookware:

 

1 Medium Skillet

1 Large Cook Pot for Pasta

Fine Mesh Strainer for Sauce Component

Large Colander for Pasta

 

Prep:

 

Finely chop the Garlic, Onion and Tomatoes

Chop up the Meat Chosen, remember mine is Pre-Cooked Sausage

Render the Butter down to Liquid

Using Fine Strainer, Strain the Clam Sauce, separating the Clams from the Sauce

 

Fill Large Cook Pot with Water to 2/3 way (more if pot is deeper than it is wide)

 

Bring Water to medium boil then ad Pasta with 1 table spoon salt and 2 table spoons Olive Oil to keep pasta from sticking.

 

While pasta is cooking in the Medium skillet put in the following:

The Sausage (or meat chosen)

Chopped Onion and Garlic

¼ the amount of rendered Butter

Simmer this mix to when Onions are slightly brown than add Clams, after 5 min turn off.

 

Serving:

 

When Pasta is done to your desired firmness, Using Colander, strain pasta of all water, place back in pot

Using Pasta Forks or 2 Large Spoons, mix into pasta remaining Butter and Clam Sauce (Liquid Portion)

Mix Pasta until thoroughly coated with Sauce.

Plate Pasta and then top with the Meat, Tomato, Onion and Clam Sauce in Skillet.

 

Bring to Table and Serve, This recipe feeds my wife and myself and all 5 of my children and with enough for seconds, I serve it with French bread, or Garlic Bread, but frankly the sauce has enough Garlic for most people.

 

Enjoy.
