ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large shallot, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 lbs steamer clams, fresh
- 3⁄4 cup dry sherry (NOT sweet or cream sherry, or cooking sherry)
- 1 sprig fresh thyme
- fresh ground black pepper
- 6 ounces jamon serrano, diced (or prosciutto)
- 1⁄4 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
directions
- In a large Dutch oven with a lid, heat the oil over medium heat. Turn heat to low and saute the shallot and garlic, just until soft. Do not let them brown.
- Turn heat back up and add the clams and sherry and bring to a boil, to let some of the alcohol evaporate.
- Add the thyme and pepper and cover with lid. Leave clams for 2 minutes. Check to see that most of them are open. Continue cooking up to 4 minutes until they are open.
- Remove pan from heat. Discard any clams that have not opened. Add ham and parsley and serve immediately, from the pan.
