Ingredients:
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3 pounds manila clams, scrubbed well
1 cup beer, water or chicken stock
Instructions:
Fry bacon in a medium pot until soft and golden, about
4 minutes. Add the onion and garlic and continue
cooking until the bacon is nicely browned and the
onion is tender, about 4 minutes longer. Stir in the
clams and add the beer. Cover the pot and steam the
clams for 6-7 minutes, until they open. Discard any
clams that do not open. Stir gently to mix with the
bacon, garlic and onion, and serve immediately.
