Ingredients

Instructions

Soak the clams in a large bowl of cold water for about 20 minutes. This helps remove any sand and salt inside the shells.
Meanwhile, in a large pan brown the chorizo in olive oil.
When the chorizo are almost completely cooked, add the potato slices, shallots and garlic.
Add paprika and season with salt and pepper.
Cook until the potatoes start to soften and then begin to brown. You'll want to push the potatoes to the bottom of the pan to get them brown and to soak of the chorizo flavor.
While the potatoes are cooking, soak a couple threads of saffron in the vegetable broth.
When the potatoes are almost done cooking, add white wine and simmer until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
Stir in baby kale or spinach.
Drain the clams and add to pan.
Add vegetable-saffron broth and cover. Cook until the clams have opened, about 8 minutes.
Discard clams that have not opened.
Top with garlic scapes or green onions, optional.
