Steamed Clams With Cilantro And Red Pepper Recipe

steamed clams with cilantro and red pepper

From princesa9580 16 years ago

Serve crusty bread and a chilled Pinot Grigio throughout the meal. Beer would be fun, too.

Melt 4 tablespoons butter in large pot over medium heat. Add green onions and cook 3 minutes. Add 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro and next 4 ingredients. Increase heat to high; bring mixture to boil. Add clams; cover pot. Cook until clams open, shaking pot often, about 7 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer clams to 6 soup bowls (discard any clams that do not open). Boil remaining liquid over high heat until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Whisk in remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over clams. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup chopped cilantro and serve.

This sounds like something you would find at a seafood place in somewhere in New England. While reading this recipe that is what I was thinking of. I'll be serving this in the near future. Thanks.
