Steps:

• Heat olive oil over medium heat. Melt butter then add garlic and saute for about 1 minute or until garlic is fragrant.
• Pour in the wine and bring to a boil, cooking until the wine has reduced to about half its original volume. Taste and season with salt and pepper as desired. I use sea salt and fresh ground peppercorns. Set sauce aside and keep warm.
• Get grill as hot as you can for best results. Place the clams on grill. (A disposible foil pan works great for this!) Grill until the clams have opened and discard any clams that do not.
• Remove from grill and pour clams and juice into a shallow bowl. Pour sauce sauce over the top. Top with parsley and any optional garnishes as desired.
• Serve immediately with some good crusty bread to soak up all the yummy juices.
• Have another glass of wine and ENJOY!

WHITE WINE AND GARLIC STEAMED CLAMS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in large pan (use enough to lightly coats bottom -- about 3 TBSP).
• Saute garlic until a little soft (DO NOT let it brown).
• Place clams in pan on top of oil & garlic (try to place in single layer, but can be double on top of each other).
• Add enough white wine to barely cover/meet the middle of the clams.
• Add crushed red pepper and thyme (you can change the amounts to your liking -- I usually make it pretty spicy).
• Cover with a tight lid and steam until all clams have opened (I use a clear glass top so I can watch them and not have to take the lid off, but you don't have to).
• Poor into large bowl and serve.
• Enjoy with some crusty bread for dipping in the sauce.
