Baked Stuffed Clams Recipe
Ingredients:
24 Clean Clam Shells (or foil cups)
2 cans (6.5 ounce size) minced clams, drained with juice reserved
1 can (6 ounce size) crab meat, drained
4 cups fresh bread crumbs
1/4 cup minced sweet onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
lemon pepper to taste
paprika to taste
2 lemons, quartered
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a large frying pan, melt butter with olive oil over medium heat. Stir in onion, and cook until translucent. Stir in clams, crab meat, parsley, lemon pepper, and bread crumbs. Reduce heat to low, and slowly pour in clam juice until mixture is slightly sticky, but not wet. The bread crumbs will continue to absorb moisture, so be careful not to add too much clam juice.
Fill each clean clam shell with mixture, pressing tightly into shell.
Arrange on a baking sheet, and sprinkle lightly with paprika. (Stuffed shells may be covered and frozen at this point for later use.)
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and sizzling. If frozen, bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes, or until warmed through. Serve warm on a platter with lemon wedges.

Baked Clam Dip Recipe
Tasty clam dip is baked and served in an edible crusty bread-bowl for an elegant appetizer.
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup margarine or butter
2 cans (6-1/2 ounces) of minced clams with juice
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
10 cloves of garlic (more or less to taste)
1 small onion diced (more or less to taste)
Dash of Worcestershire
Dash of Tabasco Hot sauce
1 (6-inch) round loaf of crusty bread, sourdough works well
Additional crusty bread pieces for dipping
Chopped parsley for garnish
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Slice top from the round of bread and reserve. Using a serrated knife, carefully cut chunks out the center of the bread, leaving 1 inch of bread around the interior, to form a bowl for the clam dip.
Reserve bread chunk innards and lid to use as dippers.
Mix margarine, clams, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic, onion, Worcestershire, and Tabasco sauces together until combined.
Pour clam mixture into bread bowl. Place bread bowl on a baking sheet. Bake uncovered for 30 to 40 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes, then sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve warm.
As your guests consume the dip from inside the bowl, you can tear or cut off parts of the bowl itself to serve. The bowl is the best part, since it usually ends up crunchy on the outside, but soaked with that great dip on the inside. Use this idea with any baked cheese dip.
