Bonus if you, like me, only have two mouths to feed: you can pack up the rest and bring it with you to work for lunch. I was the envy of the office when, one morning around 10:30 (I get up early, remember), I peeled the lid off my tupperware, allowing the smell of mustard and shallots waft through the kitchen area. It was fantastic the night before, sizzling straight outta the skillet, but like most things even better cold the next day.

Major kudos to Rishia Zimmern, wife of Travel Channel’s Andrew Zimmern, for sharing her delicious recipe with NYT Cooking.

Nothing should be baking, roasting, or simmering for too long… not when there are endless hours of sunlight to enjoy. (Funny coming from someone who goes to bed by 9 o’clock most nights / but you get my point.)

These steamed clams are not only super simple to make — 15 minutes from start to table — but they’re chock full o’ citrus-y, garlic flavor. Lightly inspired by a dish at The Clam, our not-so-new-anymore favorite restaurant in the ‘hood, this iteration kicks it up just a notch in the heat department with some sliced jalapenos.

Spice not your thing? No big deal; lose the peppers in the recipe, maybe the chili flakes as well, and you’ll still be in for a treat.

As for how many clams serves how many people, it depends upon your M.O. >>> I bought 3 pounds of littlenecks for the two of us and it was a small dinner, even with a side of broccoli. We could’ve eaten more; but isn’t that always the case with a batch of juicy clams? You feel like you can go on and on and on and…
