Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 pounds/1.36 kg fresh sea snails, in shells
1/4 cup/58 ml extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 fresh chile pepper, chopped
1 cup/235 ml white wine
Salt, to taste
Bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked and chopped

Steps:

  • To clean and cook sea snails: Boil the snails for approximately 20 minutes in a pot of water. This will remove the sand and grit trapped inside the shell and cook the snail meat.
  • In a saucepan, heat up the olive oil and saute the garlic and chopped chile pepper. Then add the snails. Add the wine and cook for a few minutes. Add salt, parsley and toss together well. Serve immediately.
