Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Sauté the garlic and parsley in the butter until lightly browned. Season with black pepper, add water and clams. Cover and cook 5 minutes over high heat. Transfer the clams that have opened to a serving bowl. Continue cooking any clams that haven’t opened for another 2-3 minutes. Discard any clams that haven’t opened.

  2. Step 2

    When you pour the broth over the clams, do so slowly so any sediment is left behind to be discarded. Serve with fresh bread.
