Italian Clam chowder easy and tasty recipe




A second course of tasty fish to be enjoyed with croutons. Clam chowder is a very versatile recipe, in fact, it lends itself well as a condiment for a first course of fish with an unsurpassed flavor. The lightly browned anchovies give the clam chowder a stronger flavor, much appreciated by our diners. A sauce of peeled tomatoes with lots of clams ideal for summer lunches and dinners. 
The addictive scent conquers everyone!

Ingredients for 4 people

500 g clams already purged
Half a clove of garlic
Extra virgin olive oil to taste
Salt and pepper
Chopped parsley
4 anchovies in oil
400 g peeled tomatoes

Procedure:

Wash the clams well and place them in a colander. In a pot add the clams with half a glass of water, cook over medium heat with lid until all the clams are open (remove those remained closed). In a pan pour a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, heat slightly and add chopped garlic, parsley, anchovies and brown for a few seconds. At this point add the peeled tomatoes, crush them with a fork and add the clams without liquid. Strain the clam liquid with a narrow mesh strainer and pour it into the sauce. Cook over medium heat for about 15/20 minutes and season with salt if necessary. Serve the clam chowder hot with croutons, freshly chopped parsley and ground pepper if desired.
Excellent seasoning also for pasta!
