Clam And Shrimp Spaghetti - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
    6 1/2 ounces clams (1 small can)
    8 ounces angel hair pasta
    4 garlic cloves, minced
    4 green onions, sliced
    4 tablespoons butter, divided
    1 cup chicken broth
    1 cup white wine
    2 -4 tablespoons Italian spices
    8 ounces parmesan cheese
Preparation
    Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet and add garlic and onions. Reserve a couple of tablespoons of the green part of the onion for garnish. Saute until nearly done. Drain Clams well into a measuring cup. You should get 1/4 to 1/2 cup of juice. Add clam juice, chicken broth and wine to the skillet. Add italian seasonings and bring to a rolling boil. Boil until sauce has reduced somewhat approximately 5 minutes, reduce heat to simmer. Continue to cook while pasta is cooking. If sauce is not to desired thickness you can add some parmesan cheese to help thicken the sauce or a little cornstarch mixture. I like to add about1/4 cup parmesan to the sauce. Sauce should be somewhat thin. When pasta has approximately 4 minutes until it is completely finished, add in the clams and the shrimp. Cook only until shrimp turns pink. Cover and set aside.
    PASTA:
    Prepare pasta according to directions. When finished rinsed lightly. You will want the pasta to retain some heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter which has been broken into smaller pieces, 2 tablespoons Italian seasonings and 1 cup of parmesan cheese. Blend well and cover.
    SERVE:.
    Divide pasta onto 4 dinner plates and top with sauce mixture, topping with parmesan cheese and a bit of reserved green onions.
    NOTES: If you like a lot of sauce with your pasta you can increase the sauce mixture to desired amount.
