Lemon Butter Clams (Essential Oils)

We went out if town this past weekend and every time we are in Pensacola, Florida...we would stop by Joe Patti (local seafood store) so I can grab some seafood. I LOVE  that place.  Every time we go there..I never leave without buying an icechest full of fresh SEAFOOD. 

This trip I got some really good clams,lobsters, LUMP crab meat, fresh filet of assorted FISHES. 

I grabbed 3 bags of clams for dinner that night knowing that we be home late and the kids would be starving....since it is the easiest and QUICKEST to make. 

Ingredient: 

Clams (washed and clean--I just used a scrub that I have for clams n mussels--set aside in a colander to drain all excess water) 

1 Stick Butter 

4 cloves garlic (minced)

2 C White Wine 

4 drops of Lemon Essential Oils 

1 lemon cut into thin slices (garnished) 

Salt 

Pepper 

Chopped parsley (garnish) 

Direction: 

In a big sauté pan I melted my butter and threw in the minced garlic .. Cook until the garlic is translucent. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Then pour in the  2 C white wine and  clams. Then added the LEMON ESSENTIAL OILS. Then cover for about 15 minutes. Making sure the clams is open.. Toss the clams that are not open. 

Uncover and toss until all the ingredients are nicely incorporated. Taste and add salt and pepper to taste. 

Pour into a deep dish and garnish with lemon slices and chopped parsley. 

Enjoy!!
