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

    Cook the Garlic

    In a large pot or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

  3. 3

    Add the Clams

    Add the cleaned clams to the pot and pour in the white wine and lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Steam the Clams

    Cover the pot and let the clams steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until they have opened up. Discard any clams that remain closed.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Remove the pot from heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately with crusty bread.
