  • Use good-quality sausage: The sausage is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good-quality sausage. Look for a sausage that is flavorful and has a good texture.
  • Cook the sausage and peppers first: Cooking the sausage and peppers before adding the clams helps to develop their flavor and prevent the clams from overcooking.
  • Don't overcook the clams: Clams are very delicate, so it's important not to overcook them. Cook the clams just until they open, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Serve the clams immediately: Clams are best served immediately after they are cooked. If you need to keep them warm, you can place them in a chafing dish or a warm oven.
