Clams Shrimp Scallops Bianco

This is an easy to make Italian meal. Buy scallops, clams and shrimp. For one person, 4-6 clams, 6 shrimp and dozen bay scallops are perfect, and if you serve over pasta, you dont need as many scallops.

Crush 8-10 cloves garlic. add 3/4 of it to bowl with shrimp and scallops, douse with olive oil, salt pepper and oregano. Mix thoroughly. Then slice 2 cloves garlic, add to hot oil in skillet, brown slightly, add clams and cup white wine. cover and let er go till clams open up.

While clams are going, heat another skillet with olive oil and remaining garlic. After garlic slightly browned, add shrimp and scallops. Cook till almost done. By this time, clams should be opened--add clams and juice they cooked in to shrimp and scallops, let finish. Voila. The more white wine you add to clams in beginning, the more sauce you will have in the end. Perfect over pasta or with good bread to soak it up. If you want to make sauce a little more rich, add slab of butter at end.
