CLAMS WITH CHORIZO

Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces fresh chorizo sausage (about 1 link), removed from casing
1/2 cup diced white or yellow onions
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound littleneck clams (about 12 clams), cleaned and soaked in water to remove impurities
1 cup dry white wine, plus more if needed
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
3 to 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
Crusty bread or baguette, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large saucepot over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, using a spoon or spatula to break up the sausage into small pieces, until the sausage begins to brown. Add the onions and garlic and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the sausage has browned, 3 to 4 minutes, taking care not to burn the garlic.
  • Add the clams to the pot and let settle for a minute, then add the white wine and cilantro. Re-season with salt and pepper and cover tightly with a lid. Let cook about 5 minutes, making sure that the broth at the bottom is at a simmer during that time. After 5 minutes, the clams should have opened or be mostly open; if not, or if the mixture is dry, add another 1/4 cup or so of wine, cover and simmer until the clams are open, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Taste the broth for seasoning and add salt or pepper if necessary. Add the butter to the broth and stir to combine.
  • Transfer to a large serving bowl, making sure to pour the broth over the clams. (Remove any unopened clams and discard them.) Serve with crusty bread or baguette.

CHORIZO STEAMED CLAMS



Chorizo Steamed Clams image

I have always just called these chorizo steamed clams, 'Spanish Clams,' since it seems like there's some variation of this on every Spanish restaurant menu I've ever seen. Sometimes they use beer, or white wine, or sherry; and many varieties of clams can be used. But the common denominator is the spicy, Spanish-style chorizo. I like to serve steamed clams with grilled bread.

Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup finely diced onions
3 ounces Spanish chorizo sausage, quartered lengthwise, cut into1/4-inch pieces
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ cups white wine
3 pounds littleneck clams, scrubbed and rinsed
⅓ cup chopped Italian parsley
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Place large pot over medium heat; add olive oil. Stir in diced onion; cook and stir until onions begin to turn translucent, 3 or 4 minutes. Add chorizo; cook and stir to render some fat, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Pour in white wine.
  • Raise heat to high and bring liquid to a boil. Immediately add clams and distribute evenly. Cover and cook until clams open, about 7 minutes. During this time you can occasionally shake the pot to "stir" the clams using potholders or a kitchen towel to hold the pot handles. It's best not to open the lid and stir.
  • When clams have opened, remove pot from heat. Stir in butter and parsley; allow butter to melt. Serve clams in heated bowls with lots of the liquid.

CHORIZO AND CLAMS, PORTUGUESE STYLE



Chorizo and Clams, Portuguese Style image

Categories     Clam     Boil

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 yellow or white onion, quartered and thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
6 ounces Chorizo (page 24)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 small bay leaf, crumbled
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup water
2 pounds clams, mussels, or a mixture, scrubbed and mussels debearded if needed

Steps:

  • In a large pot or sauté pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion begins to wilt, about 3 minutes. Crumble the chorizo into the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to firm, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, bay leaf, wine, and water and bring to a boil. Cover partially and cook until the liquid is reduced and the mixture is saucy, 5 minutes.
  • Add the shellfish to the pan, cover all the way, and cook until the shells open and their meat is slightly firm, about 5 minutes. Discard any shellfish that fail to open, then serve right away.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: Use plump, briny clams, spicy chorizo, ripe tomatoes, and aromatic garlic for the best flavor.
  • Soak the clams: Soaking the clams in cold, salted water for at least 30 minutes helps to remove any grit or sand.
  • Cook the chorizo first: This will render out the fat and add flavor to the dish.
  • Use a good quality white wine: A dry white wine will add acidity and depth of flavor to the sauce.
  • Don't overcook the clams: Clams cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them or they will become tough.
  • Serve immediately: Clams and chorizo with tomato and garlic is best served immediately, while the clams are still tender and the sauce is hot.

Conclusion:

Clams and chorizo with tomato and garlic is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor from the briny clams, spicy chorizo, ripe tomatoes, and aromatic garlic. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or rice to soak up the delicious sauce. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
