Steps:
- Place a large pot over medium heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion and saute until the onion is soft and translucent. (About 3-4 minutes). Add the chorizo to the pan and continue to saute for another 3 minutes until enough fat has released to coat all the onion.
- Next, add the garlic and paprika to the pot. Stir and saute for another minute until aromatic.
- Pour the white wine into the pot. Bring to the boil and add the clams to the pot. Distribute the clams evenly across the pot. Cover with a lid and cook for 6-7 minutes until the clams have opened up. Discard any that do not open.
- Remove the pot from heat and stir in the parsley and butter. Season with salt and pepper and serve in hot bowls with crusty bread.

Steps:
- In a large high-sided saute pan with a lid, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo, cooking until it has let off some of its fat and the oil is colored by its spices, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add the fennel and onions and cook until softened and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Next, add the garlic, pimenton and crushed red pepper and cook for 1 additional minute. Add the clam juice and white wine and bring the mixture to a boil. Add the clams into the broth. Cover and cook until the clams open up, 5 to 6 minutes. Discard any clams that don't open up.
- After the clams have opened, add the parsley, butter, lemon zest and juice. Plate the clams with plenty of the liquid and serve with a piece of crusty bread to sop up all the delicious broth!

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan (preferably one that can also be used for serving) over high heat. When it begins to smoke, add the chorizo and cook until just beginning to color, 2 minutes. Add the onion and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the onion is translucent, 2 minutes.
- Add the garlic, cockles, clam juice and wine. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the cockles are open and warmed through, 5 to 7 minutes. (Discard any cockles that do not open.) Remove from the heat and stir in the butter and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with bread.
CHORIZO STEAMED CLAMS
I have always just called these chorizo steamed clams, 'Spanish Clams,' since it seems like there's some variation of this on every Spanish restaurant menu I've ever seen. Sometimes they use beer, or white wine, or sherry; and many varieties of clams can be used. But the common denominator is the spicy, Spanish-style chorizo. I like to serve steamed clams with grilled bread.

Steps:
- Place large pot over medium heat; add olive oil. Stir in diced onion; cook and stir until onions begin to turn translucent, 3 or 4 minutes. Add chorizo; cook and stir to render some fat, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Pour in white wine.
- Raise heat to high and bring liquid to a boil. Immediately add clams and distribute evenly. Cover and cook until clams open, about 7 minutes. During this time you can occasionally shake the pot to "stir" the clams using potholders or a kitchen towel to hold the pot handles. It's best not to open the lid and stir.
- When clams have opened, remove pot from heat. Stir in butter and parsley; allow butter to melt. Serve clams in heated bowls with lots of the liquid.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet large enough to hold clams in a single layer with foil. Use a paring knife to gently pry apart the clamshells and then cut the meat away, discarding any gritty dark parts and a half-inch of the dark, hard siphon. Place clam meat in the better-looking shell half.
- Pour oil into 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, sauté until softened. Add parsley, sauté briefly, then stir in bread crumbs. Sauté, stirring, until bread crumbs are uniformly moistened with oil and starting to color. Season generously with pepper. Remove from heat.
- Using a teaspoon, cover each clam with bread crumb mixture, patting it on with the back of the spoon. Do this over the skillet so that any crumbs that fall go back into the pan and are used. Place clams on baking sheet and bake 8 minutes. Transfer to serving platter and garnish with lemon wedges.
