Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, 1 stick melted, 1 stick cubed
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning
2 teaspoons chili flakes
4 medium sweet potatoes, quartered or sliced in half depending on how big they are (they should be around the same size as the corn halves)
4 ears of corn, shucked and cut in half
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cups chicken stock
2 bottles (24 ounces) IPA beer
12 cloves garlic, skin on
2 red onions, skin on, quartered
2 pounds chorizo sausage
4 dozen littleneck clams, cleaned
Lemon wedges, for serving
Few dashes of hot sauce

Steps:

  • Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
  • To a large mixing bowl, add the melted butter, seafood seasoning and chili flakes. Mix to combine. Add the potatoes and corn and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a steamer basket.
  • To the bottom of a steam pot, add the chicken stock, beer, garlic, onions and a pinch of salt and black pepper and cover with a lid. Place the steamer basket onto the steam pot and place on the grill. Steam until the corn and potatoes are cooked three-quarters of the way through, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, sear the chorizo on all sides until the skin is charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side, then add to the steamer basket. Cover with the lid and cook for 5 more minutes. Add the clams, cover and cook until the clams have steamed open, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Pour the clams, chorizo, potatoes and corn onto a paper-lined table. Garnish with lemon wedges. Strain the broth into a smaller pot. Whisk in the cubed butter and hot sauce. Pour into mugs and serve alongside the clam bake.

STEAMED CORN WITH CLAMS AND BACON



Steamed Corn With Clams and Bacon image

"The dish tastes exactly of August on a plate," Sam Sifton wrote in 2013 when bringing the recipe to The Times. "the saltiness of the clams amplifying what Pablo Neruda called the sweet, 'virginal' flavor of the corn." Adapted from ''Seamus Mullen's Hero Food," this fast summer recipe pairs sweet corn with briny clams and smoky bacon for a well-rounded, light dish.

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 pound slab bacon, diced
6 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
50 littleneck clams
5 ears sweet corn, shucked, trimmedand cut in half
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon pimentón
Crushed Aleppo pepper to taste, or red-pepper flakes
10 to 12 fresh basil leaves, torn roughly
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • In a large, heavy bottomed pot set over medium heat, cook the bacon until it begins to render its fat. Add the garlic, and cook until it turns translucent.
  • Add the clams, corn and white wine, then stir in the pimentón. Increase heat to high, and cook for approximately 30 seconds, to evaporate the alcohol. Lower heat to medium low, cover the pot and steam until the clams have all opened and the corn is tender, approximately 8-10 minutes. (Discard any unopened clams.)
  • Using tongs and a spoon, remove all the clams and corn and bacon from the pot, and place in large, warm bowl, with a healthy dose of broth, a scattering of Aleppo pepper and the torn basil, and drizzle with olive oil.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh ingredients: Use fresh corn kernels for the best flavor and texture. Fresh clams are also preferable, but frozen clams can be used in a pinch.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for onion, celery, and green bell pepper, but you can also add other vegetables like carrots, zucchini, or mushrooms.
  • Don't overcook the clams: Clams are delicate and will toughen if overcooked. Cook them just until they are opaque and cooked through.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the key ingredients in this casserole, so use a good quality cheese that melts well. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese are both good choices.
  • Serve immediately: This casserole is best served immediately after it is made. The crust will soften if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Corn clam casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It can be made with fresh or frozen corn and clams, and it is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. This casserole is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
