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
Cook the Aromatics
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3
Add Wine and Clams
Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the cleaned clams to the pot and cover with a lid.
4
Steam the Clams
Allow the clams to steam for about 5-10 minutes, or until they have opened. Discard any clams that remain closed.
5
Finish and Serve
Stir in the fresh parsley and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve the clams in a bowl with the broth and enjoy!
