Steamed Corn With Clams And Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium stockpot over mediumhigh heat. Add the chorizo and saute until golden brown on both sides. Remove the chorizo and place on a plate lined with paper towels. Drain all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan and return to the heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook until soft. Add the white wine and reduce by half. Add the corn and the clams, season with salt and pepper, and continue cooking until the clams just open. Remove the pan from the heat and add the parsley. Serve in bowls with slices of bread.

Steps:

• Heat a large, deep skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
• Add the celery, garlic, chorizo and crushed red pepper and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the clams and white wine, season with salt and pepper, cover and steam until the clams open, 3 to 6 minutes. Discard those that don't open.
• Stir in the butter, corn, parsley and basil. Transfer to large serving bowl. Serve with the bread.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy bottomed pot set over medium heat, cook the bacon until it begins to render its fat. Add the garlic, and cook until it turns translucent.
• Add the clams, corn and white wine, then stir in the pimentón. Increase heat to high, and cook for approximately 30 seconds, to evaporate the alcohol. Lower heat to medium low, cover the pot and steam until the clams have all opened and the corn is tender, approximately 8-10 minutes. (Discard any unopened clams.)
• Using tongs and a spoon, remove all the clams and corn and bacon from the pot, and place in large, warm bowl, with a healthy dose of broth, a scattering of Aleppo pepper and the torn basil, and drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• Scrub the clams under cold running water to remove grit and sand, then set aside.
• Melt 2 teaspoons of the butter in a large pot set over medium heat. Add the bacon, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until it has started to crisp, approximately 5 minutes.
• Add the beer to the pot, and allow to heat through, then carefully add the clams in layers. Cover the pot, and let the clams steam and open, approximately 10 to 12 minutes.
• While the clams cook, put a small pot over medium heat, and add the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter. When it melts, add the jalapeños and stir to combine. Keep the butter warm until ready to use.
• Drain the clams, reserving their liquor, and serve them on a platter, with the reserved clam broth and the melted butter.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large pot. Cook sliced shallot and sliced jalapeno until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in dry white wine. Bring to a simmer. Add clams and corn. Cook, covered, until clams open, 5 to 7 minutes; discard any unopened clams. Divide mixture between 2 bowls. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
