Spinach Fettuccine With Clam Butter Sauce And Diced Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter and oil in a large saute pan and add onions. Cook covered over gentle heat for 40 minutes to one hour, until the onions are a deep golden brown. You may need to add water or stock to prevent the onions from burning. Stir in the fresh thyme, and toss with the pasta. Serve.

Steps:

• Thaw, drain and squeeze chopped spinach. If you don't get the spinach mostly dry, the sauce is wet, runny and rather icky. !Raw spinach does not work in this recipe!
• Melt butter in sauce pan.
• Add olive oil and garlic.
• Add spinach, cook until warmed through (approximately 5 minutes).
• Add clams and juice, simmer for 5 minutes.
• remove from heat, serve over 3/4 pound pasta noodles with bread crumbs and cheese as toppings.

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add onion, garlic, and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is golden, about 6 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to break down and sauce thickens slightly, about 8 minutes.
• Increase heat to moderately high, then add clams and bring to a boil, covered. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until clams just open wide, about 6 minutes (discard clams that do not open after 10 minutes). Stir in spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
