Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Clams

    Rinse the clams under cold water to remove any sand or grit. Discard any clams that are open and do not close when tapped.

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped shallots. Sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Wine

    Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes. Pour in the white wine, and bring the mixture to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Cook the Clams

    Add the cleaned clams to the pot, cover, and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the clams have opened. Shake the pot gently to ensure even cooking.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Once all clams are open, season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
