This elegant recipe for grilled clams with herb butter is a fantastic way to enjoy fresh seafood with minimal fuss. By cooking the clams quickly over a high heat, they retain their natural sweetness and delicate texture, while the melted herb butter provides a rich, savoury finish. The combination of fresh dill, parsley and spring onion cuts through the butter, adding a vibrant brightness that complements the salty depth of the shellfish.
As a diabetes-friendly option, this dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and packed with high-quality protein and essential minerals. It makes for a sophisticated starter or a light main course when served with a crisp green salad. Always ensure you source the freshest clams possible and serve them immediately while the butter is gloriously melted and the juices are still bubbling.

Ingredients for Grilled Clams With Herb Butter
110g (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon chopped spring onion
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
24 littleneck clams, scrubbed
Lemon wedges
How to make Grilled Clams With Herb Butter
Mix first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl until well blended. Season herb butter to taste with salt and pepper.
Build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to high. Place clams on grill rack and cover grill with lid. Grill until clams just open, 6-8 minutes (discard any that do not open). Use tongs to transfer to a platter, being careful to keep as much juice in the shells as possible.
Dot clams with herb butter; let stand until butter melts. Serve warm with lemon wedges alongside for squeezing over.
