My family LOVED this! I added a jalapeño from my garden and added more garlic (cuz my fam loves it) and it was amazing!!! So so easy and restaurant quality. Thank you for sharing!!!
That is great Morgan, thank you for your review!
First time I’ve ever made this. I’ve always enjoyed the restaurant versions but this was even better! I probably used more clams than called for but we love any seafood dish.
I’ve saved it and will share the recipe with my daughters. So glad I saw this! Thank you!
I made it tonight. It was so good!
