Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 lb chorizo sausage, sliced
2/3 cup chopped onion
2 tbsp minced shallots
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp crushed red peppers
4 cups shrimp stock
4 dozen littleneck clams, scrubbed
2 cups medium diced potatoes , par-cooked until fork tender and drained
1 cup peeled, seeded, and chopped plum tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tsp essence , recipe follows
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley, garnish
hot portuguese or french bread, accompaniment
2 1/2 tbsp paprika
2 tbsp salt
2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp black pepper
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp dried leaf oregano
1 tbsp dried thyme

Directions:

In a large, deep saute pan or pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook until browned and the fat is rendered, about 3 minutes. Add the onions and shallots and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and stir to combine. Add the shrimp stock and bring to a boil. Add the clams, potatoes, tomatoes, green onions, cilantro, and Essence. Cover and cook until the clams open, about 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally.
Remove from the heat and discard any unopened shells. Garnish with the parsley and either serve directly from the pot at the table, or ladle into large soup bowls. Serve with hot, crusty Portuguese bread.
Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
Yield: about 2/3 cup
