Categories     easy, quick, appetizer

Time 15m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 tablespoons salted butter
Juice of 1 lemon
Olive oil
24 razor clams, rinsed and scrubbed
1 tablespoon minced chives
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Put butter in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until it smells fragrant and turns nut-brown. Remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice and set aside.
  • Put a large griddle or cast-iron skillet over high heat. When very hot, slick with olive oil. Place clams, hinge-side down if possible, on pan. Cook about 5 minutes, until clams open. Turn clams over and cook until the meat just starts to brown. You may need to do this in two shifts, or in two pans. Transfer clams to serving platter. Reheat butter, stir in chives and pepper and spoon over clams.

I'm allergic to butter, so I used olive oil instead. The clams were still delicious, but the sauce wasn't as rich.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some garlic and lemon juice to the brown butter sauce, and it was much better.

I followed the recipe exactly and the clams were overcooked. I think I'll reduce the cooking time next time.
