Ingredients:
4 dozen Littleneck Clams
4 cloves garlic
¼ cup olive oil
½ cup fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon red hot pepper flakes
In a large pot, place 2 tablespoons of olive oil in with the
scrubbed clams. Over medium high heat, cover the pot and cook
the clams until they start to open. Remove the clams as they pop
open to prevent over cooking. When all of the clams are cooked,
shuck the meat from the shell and chop up coarsely. Let the clam
broth continue to simmer for 2 minutes while you are shucking
the clams then remove from heat. Strain the clam juice and set
aside. In a large skillet, add a ¼ cup of olive over medium
heat. Sauté the garlic and crushed red pepper until slightly
golden. Add the clam broth and cook until it begins to simmer.
Add clams and parsley and cook for another 1-3 minutes. Serve
over pasta
Another great recipe from the Grand Central Oyster Bar in New
York. A big hit in our family.
