Cast Iron Skillet Steamers Gc

36 steamers -- cleaned

1 cup coconut milk

1/2 cup clam juice

1/4 cup fresh lime juice

1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger

1/4 cup chopped cilantro

2 teaspoons 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.
