My daughters favorite Linguine w/ clams


INGREDIENTS
1 pound small fresh clams scrubbed clean
1 cup white wine
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
1 (10 ounce) container BUITONI® Refrigerated Alfredo Sauce or Light Alfredo Sauce
1/2 teaspoon saffron strands*
1 (9 ounce) package BUITONI® Refrigerated Linguine
2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional)

DIRECTIONS
Steam clams with wine and garlic in covered, medium saucepan over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes or until clams open. Drain clams, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid.
Heat sauce, reserved cooking liquid and saffron in small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes. Stir until blended and saffron imparts a yellow color to sauce.
Prepare pasta according to package directions.
Top pasta with sauce and clams. Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
