Dinner Tonight: Taiwanese-Style Clams Recipe
- 1 1/2 pounds clams, rinsed and scrubbed well
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 inch ginger, peeled, and thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 jalapenos, stemmed, seeded, and chopped
- 2 stalks scallion, chopped into 2-inch lengths
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon rice wine
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- Combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, rice wine, and sesame oil and set aside.
- Place a work or large saute pan over high heat. Pour in the cooking oil and when hot, add the garlic and ginger. Stir fry for a few seconds until aromatic. Add the chiles and cook for 10 seconds or so.
- Add the clams in, stir well, and then cover. Cook until some of the clams are starting to open up, about 2 to 4 minutes. Then pour in the soy sauce mixture. Recover and cook until all the clams have opened. Sprinkle in the scallion, turn off the heat, and serve.
