Recipe(tried): Grilled Clams with Basil Breadcrumbs - For June, and anyone else who likes clams...
Main Dishes - AssortedHi June:-) Here is the recipe that I mentioned. Ina Garten served these at a beach barbecue. She also served hamburgers and s'mores. If they sound good to you, give them a try. DH and I thought they were very good.
GRILLED CLAMS WITH BASIL BREADCRUMBS
Courtesy of Ina Garten
Yield: 6 servings
1 1/2 cups coarse bread crumbs, toasted
3 tablespoons good olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
6 sun-dried tomato halves in oil, drained and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
24 littleneck clams, scrubbed clean
2 1/2 tablespoons melted butter
Heat a gas grill or prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals.
Combine the bread crumbs, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, pine nuts, salt and pepper in a large serving bowl and set aside.
When the grill is hot, place the clams in 1 layer on the hot grate and allow the heat to open the clams. They'll open gradually for about 5 minutes, then pop-open wide when they're done.
Using tongs, remove the clams from the grill and place them in the bowl with the bread crumb mixture and toss together. Drizzle with the melted butter, and serve hot.
