Ingredients
2 2/3 | Tbsp. | non-hydrogenated vegetable oil spread |
3 | cloves garlic, peeled and thinly sliced | |
1/2 | tsp. | crushed red chili flakes |
2 | Tbsp. | flat-leaf parsley, minced |

Directions
- Melt the spread and add the garlic, red chili flakes, and parsley. Place the sauce in a small cup and set aside.
- Preheat the grill to high. Place scrubbed clams on a piece of foil or jelly roll pan to catch the juices.
- Cook over direct heat for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping fully opened clams halfway through. (Discard any clams that do not open.) Drizzle the sauce and lime juice into the clam shells and serve.
