In this recipe, Chef Mark Murphy shares a quick and easy way to cook clams for a crowd. The ingredients are minimal, yet the taste is restaurant-quality. Small clams are portioned into individual foil packets and seasoned with chopped shallots, fresh parsley, garlic, a few tablespoons of white wine, and butter. While grilling, the clams steam in a small amount of liquid and open, their juices mixing with the wine, butter, and spices to create a delicious broth. Have plenty of white bread ready for dipping and enjoying.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Preheat the grill to medium heat. Make foil parcels: Tear off twenty 20-inch (50-cm) pieces of heavy-duty foil. For each parcel, stack two sheets of foil and lift the edges to form a bowl; place about 10 clams in each parcel.
Evenly distribute the shallots, garlic, and parsley among the parcels. Drizzle each portion with about 3 tablespoons of white wine and 2 tablespoons of butter; season with salt and pepper. Gather the edges of the foil at the top and seal the parcels.

Place the wraps on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the shells open. Discard any unopened clams. Serve directly in the foil wraps, garnished with thyme sprigs.
