How To Make clams casino
-
Step 1In a medium sautépan over medium-high heat, place a steaming basket and fill up with water to the bottom of the basket; bring to a boil. When water is boiling, add clams, cover and steam for ONLY 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl to cool.

Step 2In a small skillet over medium heat, add bacon and butter; cook until brown but not crispy. Remove with tongs to a plate lined with paper towel. Return the skillet on the heat and add shallot with roasted red pepper; sauté 1 minute before adding white wine. Cook until the liquid is reduced by 2/3. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute; remove from the heat.

Step 3Chop cooked bacon into small pieces; set aside. In a medium bowl, combine the roasted red pepper mixture, chopped bacon, breadcrumbs, freshly ground black pepper, cayenne pepper and 2 tbsp. grated cheese. Mix the ingredients until very well blended.

Step 4Preheat the oven on broil placing the rack about 10-inch from the top.

Step 5Separate clams from shells and keep the deepest one as a cooking vessel. Place them in a baking dish covered with coarse sea salt. Spoon the bacon mixture in each shell. Sprinkle a little cheese on top and then parsley. Transfer to the oven and broil for 5 minutes or until the top is slightly browned. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
