Steamed Clams With Chorizo image

I come from Long Island, New York where clams are a staple in most kitchens. This is a great appetizer to serve, and so easy to make. I first had it a friend's pool party, and with 10 of us it was gone in no time.

I thought this dish was just okay. The clams were a bit bland and the sauce was a bit too thin.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chorizo next time.
