directions

  • In a bowl, combine breadcrumbs, lemon, olive oil, and clams.
  • In a frying pan over medium low heat, melt butter, add onion, garlic, and pepper, and saute five minutes. Stir in bacon, and cook an additonal five minutes. Stir into breadcrumb mixture.
  • If filling clam shells: spoon about 2T mix into each clam shell, and top with a little bacon. Place filled shells on a cookie sheet or in a pyrex with about 1/4 inch water. Bake about 10 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • If filling a casserole dish: spoon mixture into casserole dish, and bake uncovered for 15 minutes at 350 degrees. Serve with crackers. (I use Pepridge Farm Butterfly crackers, but any hard cracker will do).
  • Change it up by adding a 1/2 C shredded mozzerella cheese and 2T grated Parmeseano Reggianno or Pecorino Ramano into the mix!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I grew up in New Jersey with an Italian mother, and Ukranian father. Needless to say I developed a love for a wide variety of foods! I love the Polish Ukranian influence my paternal side brought forth, as well as the traditional Italian cuisine from my mother's side of the family. For me, I have a passion for chocolate and desserts! I always use real butter, rich cream, sugar, and real vanilla, but I understand why we substitute them, and believe all of my recipes fare well with the substitutions, if you choose to do so. I only use salt in my potatoes, so don't expect to see too much of it in any of my recipes!Every recipe I publish has been time tested, and tasted, and raved about! So I guarantee, you'll be happy with every one you try! Thanks for visiting! I hope you come back again!
