Yum! We loved the kick from the red pepper. I also ended up with a very soupy clam mixture, so I spent a little more time reducing... I may try the slurry others suggested next time. Flavor was great, though! Thanks for sharing - Best of 2012 tag.

Really quick! I subbed rotini instead of ziti because that is what I had on hand. As other reviewers suggested, I used a cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce up a bit. Mine was very thin without it....maybe there was more liquid in my canned clams. The flavor was wonderful. Made for your win in football tag! Thanks for sharing!

Fantastic clam dish! And it's actually relatively healthy, no butter or cream yet you don't miss them at all. The garlic, onion, and clam juice really flavor things up nicely. I used a red onion and Rigatoni in place of Ziti. Doubled the batch and am glad I did. Thank you, Mikekey! [Made for the All You Can Cook Buffet]
