Ingredients:

Serving

1 pint niantic river quahog, shucked and chopped
1/2 lb bacon, diced
3 tbsp olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
2 medium potatoes, chopped
12 oz evaporated skim milk

Directions:

In a large saucepan, fry the bacon. Remove the pieces and drain out the fat.
In the same saucepan to catch some of the bacon flavor, add the olive oil and the onions simmering until translucent.
Add the potatoes and cover with water, simmering gently until the potatoes are cooked all the way through.
Add the the quahogs and liquor, and heat. Do not boil! Simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the evaporated skim milk but again, do not boil.
Throw in the the bacon and your good to go.
HINT: This only gets better with age. I love it after a few hours on the stove. It even freezes well, but be aware that the potatoes can be a little gritty after too long.
