"This is easy and delicious. It's an adaptation of a recipe that someone in Maine posted on another site. I used to be all braggy about my own recipe of the same name, but then I tried this and loved it! So does everyone else in the family. When I'm feeling fancy, I add some steamers."

I did alter this a bit, but it came out wonderful. Because we did not have it in the house, I omitted the butter and Old Bay and used less clams/juice. Also added more lemon and fresh Italian parsley, as we love those. Great dish!
