1. Stage

In a Dutch oven or large pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add leeks and peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the edges of the leeks begin to brown, about 7 minutes.

Add the garlic and green chiles and cook until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cumin and stir until fragrant, 1 minute more. Reduce the heat to medium and pour in the salsa verde and cook, stirring often, until it thickens, about 2 to 3 minutes.

Pour in the clam juice and chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add beans and clams along with their liquid.
