Grilled Clams With Garlicky White Wine Sauce image

Yum! Make sure to serve with more wine and a great crusty bread to get all the delicious broth! This is also great with a squirt of fresh lemon or some chopped green onions as a garnish. Some even love to add a small dab of horseradish or even some good smoky bbq sauce. Experiment and try what you like. To really get the clams to cook quickly sometimes I will even place an old pot with boiling water or broth in it on the grill to add some steam. Adding some aromatics to the pot also seems to add to the flavor or the clams really well. This serves 6 as an appy or 2 as a meal if you include some bread and a green salad. Of course I could probably finish the whole lot of them off all by myself! lol Hope you enjoy this simple yet delicious dish!

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs hard shelled clams, cleaned and scrubbed (the smaller the more tender they will be)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 large garlic cloves, minced, extra if you want
1/2 cup dry white wine, I used Pinot Grigio
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
salt and pepper, to taste
chopped fresh parsley
lemon wedge (optional)
horseradish (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil over medium heat. Melt butter then add garlic and saute for about 1 minute or until garlic is fragrant.
  • Pour in the wine and bring to a boil, cooking until the wine has reduced to about half its original volume. Taste and season with salt and pepper as desired. I use sea salt and fresh ground peppercorns. Set sauce aside and keep warm.
  • Get grill as hot as you can for best results. Place the clams on grill. (A disposible foil pan works great for this!) Grill until the clams have opened and discard any clams that do not.
  • Remove from grill and pour clams and juice into a shallow bowl. Pour sauce sauce over the top. Top with parsley and any optional garnishes as desired.
  • Serve immediately with some good crusty bread to soak up all the yummy juices.
  • Have another glass of wine and ENJOY!

I'm not a huge fan of clams, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sauce was so good that I could have eaten it with a spoon.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover white wine. I always have a bottle of white wine open in the fridge, so this is a perfect dish to make when I'm looking for something quick and easy.

I followed the recipe exactly and the clams turned out perfectly. They were cooked through but still tender, and the sauce was delicious. I served them with some crusty bread to soak up all the sauce.
