Clam, Sweet Potato and Corn Bake
RECIPE COURTESY OF MICHAEL SYMON
Level: Easy
Total: 45 min
Active: 30 min
Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, 1 stick melted, 1 stick cubed
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning
2 teaspoons chili flakes
4 medium sweet potatoes, quartered or sliced in half depending on how big they are (they should be around the same size as the corn halves)
4 ears of corn, shucked and cut in half
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cups chicken stock
2 bottles (24 ounces) IPA beer
12 cloves garlic, skin on
2 red onions, skin on, quartered
2 pounds chorizo sausage
4 dozen littleneck clams, cleaned
Lemon wedges, for serving
Few dashes of hot sauce

Directions

Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.

To a large mixing bowl, add the melted butter, seafood seasoning and chili flakes. Mix to combine. Add the potatoes and corn and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a steamer basket.

To the bottom of a steam pot, add the chicken stock, beer, garlic, onions and a pinch of salt and black pepper and cover with a lid. Place the steamer basket onto the steam pot and place on the grill. Steam until the corn and potatoes are cooked three-quarters of the way through, 15 to 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, sear the chorizo on all sides until the skin is charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side, then add to the steamer basket. Cover with the lid and cook for 5 more minutes. Add the clams, cover and cook until the clams have steamed open, 5 to 8 minutes.

Pour the clams, chorizo, potatoes and corn onto a paper-lined table. Garnish with lemon wedges. Strain the broth into a smaller pot. Whisk in the cubed butter and hot sauce. Pour into mugs and serve alongside the clam bake.

  1. I'm just bummed I'm allergic to capsaicin. All that chemical heat is a no go. Yes, I put hot sauce on the table. Add your own.

  2. Chef, very nice recipe, looks delicious, I like little neck or cherry stone clams. Actually those are yams, the # 1 veggie compared whether to root grown or above ground veggies for vitamins, minerals, etc…sweet potatoes actually look like idaho baking potatoes with with white flesh, the majority of the sweet potatoes grown in the states are from North carolina,info from a 58 yr old Irish hillbilly in s/e Kentucky near n. Carolina.

  3. I'm from Rhode island. Michael Simon I like your work. I also think you have great great energy. With that said sweet potatoes is a sin in this dish. Yuck. I drink IPA's , I don't like cooking with it. I would use peroni or sam adams, some kind of quality lager. Other than that it looks good.

  4. I just can’t watch his videos anymore…. his daughter constantly going ‘can I use this instead?’ Is driving me nuts

  5. i've learned a lot from symon, he's definitely the real deal! if you don't believe that try Mables BBQ!

  6. Michael you have like an extremely sharp knife or you’re just a stud. OK you’re definitely a stud, but I’ve never seen corn Cut in half that quickly. From Southern California with love.💋
