Linguine with White Clam Sauce is a classic Italian-American dish that brings together simplicity and rich flavor. Featuring tender linguine pasta tossed in a fragrant sauce made with fresh or canned clams, garlic, olive oil, white wine, parsley, and a hint of chili flakes, this dish is both light and satisfying. Originating from coastal Italian cuisine, it highlights the Mediterranean tradition of pairing seafood with minimal yet flavorful ingredients. Nutritionally, it’s a good source of protein from the clams, which are also rich in iron and vitamin B12. Olive oil provides heart-healthy fats, while the garlic and parsley add antioxidants. However, it can be high in sodium, depending on the clams and added salt, and the pasta contributes refined carbs. Opting for whole-grain linguine and reducing salt can make this savory dish a more balanced choice for enjoying coastal flavors.
