- Preparing Time: -
- Total Time: -
- Served Person: Makes 4 to 6 servings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- freshly ground black pepper
- 3/4 cup dry white wine
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt plus more
- 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Preparation Place potatoes in a medium saucepan. Add cold water to cover by 2". Add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; set aside. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add fennel, shallots, and garlic and cook, stirring often, until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove pot from heat; add wine. Return pot to heat; increase heat to high, add littleneck clams, cover, and cook for 1 minute. Add mussels, cockles, razor clams (if using), and potatoes. Cover; cook until all shellfish have opened (discard any that do not open), 4-5 minutes longer. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shellfish and potatoes to a warm bowl and transfer any remaining vegetables from pot to a blender. Pour liquid from pot into blender, leaving any sediment behind. Add 1 cup parsley and butter to blender; purée on high until sauce is bright green and thickened, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour over shellfish; stir to coat. Garnish with whole parsley leaves. Per serving: 244 calories, 8 g fat, 32 g carbohydrates Nutritional analysis provided by Bon Appétit
