Ingredients

  • 1 envelope (1 1/2 oz) spaghetti sauce mix
  • 2 cups Muir Glen™ organic tomato puree (from 28-oz can)
  • 1 can (28 oz) Muir Glen™ organic whole peeled tomatoes with basil, undrained
  • 3 medium green onions, finely chopped (3 tablespoons)
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, diced (1 cup)
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper sauce
  • 2 1/2 cups dry white wine or clam juice
  • 2 lb uncooked clams in shells, scrubbed
  • 1 1/2 lb uncooked prawns or large shrimp, peeled, deveined

Steps

  • 1
    In 3-quart saucepan, mix sauce mix, tomato puree and tomatoes, breaking up tomatoes. Stir in onions, bell pepper, basil and pepper sauce. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 25 to 30 minutes or until bell pepper is tender. Stir in wine. Simmer 5 minutes longer.

    Discard any broken-shell or open (dead) clams. In large pot or kettle, arrange clams and prawns. Pour tomato mixture over shellfish. Cover; simmer about 30 minutes or until prawns are pink and firm. Discard any unopened clams.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Knock-knock, who's there? You can tell if a slightly opened hard-shell clam is alive by lightly tapping on the shell; if it doesn't close up, it's time to pitch it.
  • tip 2
    You can buy clams in many forms--live in the shell, shucked (fresh or frozen) and canned. Hard-shell clams should be tightly closed.
