INGREDIENTS
6 oz Fresh Clams
1 medium White Potato
1/2 cup Low-Fat Milk (1%)
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 stalk Celery
1/2 cup Clam Juice
1 Bay Leaf
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley for garnish
PREPARATION
In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, celery, and garlic, and sauté until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
Add the diced white potato to the pot and stir for a couple of minutes to coat with the oil and aromatics.
Pour in the clam juice and low-fat milk. Add the bay leaf and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow the potatoes to cook until they are tender, about 10-12 minutes.
Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to achieve a creamy consistency. Be sure to mix well to incorporate it evenly into the broth.
Gently add the fresh clams into the simmering soup. Continue to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the clams have just opened, taking care not to overcook them.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
