BAKED CLAMS

Ingredients :
48 littleneck clams
1½ cups bread crumbs
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 tbsp. roasted peppers, minced
4 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. oregano

Instructions :
1. First clean clams. Pry them open with a butter knife (it is
safer than steak knife). Cut out the clam and reserve in bowl.
Save one side of the clam shell for serving. We will need 48
halves.
2. In small bowl combine bread crumbs, garlic, peppers, oil and
oregano. Mix well. Now with the clams, I prefer to chop up all
the clams into little pieces (my preference). If you choose to
chop them up mix the chopped clams with other ingredients and
spoon mixture into clams shells. If you choose not to, take
whole clams and place back in shell and spoon mixture over clam.
3. Place clams on large cookie sheet and bake for about 10
minutes. If you like you can garnish with parmesan cheese and
lemon.
4. Please make sure before placing clam back into shell that you
clean them well.
