Cook Time 15 min
Yield 2 servings
Ingredients:
Olive oil, for frying
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups Italian-style breadcrumbs
1/2 pound, small, shucked clams, about 20 to
25
1/2 pound, small, shucked oysters, about 8 to 10
1 lemon, cut in 1/2
Sea salt
1 1/2 cups marinara or arrabiata sauce (store bought or
homemade), warmed
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional, if using marinara (not
arrabiata) sauce
Directions:
Pour enough olive oil into a large, deep, heavy frying pan to reach
a depth of 3 inches. Heat the oil over medium heat until a deep-fry
thermometer registers 350 degrees F.
While the oil is heating, put the buttermilk and the bread crumbs in
separate shallow bowls. Working in batches, dip clams and
oysters in buttermilk to coat completely. Allow the excess
buttermilk to drip back in to the bowl. Dredge clams and oysters in
the bread crumbs. Place the clams and oysters on a baking sheet,
and continue.
When the oil is hot, fry the clams and oysters in batches, about 3
minutes per batch. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried
seafood to paper towels to drain.
Immediately sprinkle the fried seafood with freshly squeezed
lemon and sea salt. Serve with a bowl of warmed spicy marinara
or arrabiata sauce for dipping.
