Cast Iron Skillet Steamers

36 Steamers, cleaned
1 c Coconut milk
1/2 c Clam juice
1/4 c Fresh lime juice
1 ts Minced fresh ginger
1/4 c Chopped cilantro
2 ts Red pepper flakes


Prepare a wood or charcoal fire and let it burn down to embers. Place a cast iron skillet on the grill and allow it to heat up to almost smoking.

In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients except steamers and mix well. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Pour this mixture into the heated cast iron skillet and let it reduce by half. Add steamers and cook until all steamers are open. Approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Discard any steamers that do not open. Serve immediately.
