Roasted Clams Casino
RECIPE COURTESY OF SCOTT CONANT
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr
Active: 40 min
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients
Clams:
36 littleneck or Manila clams
2 ounces bacon, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil, optional
2 shallots, minced
1/2 red bell pepper, minced
Kosher salt
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh oregano leaves, minced
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 cup reserved clam cooking juice
1 teaspoon minced parsley
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
Breadcrumbs:
1/2 cup panko
1 garlic clove, smashed
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons minced parsley
2 lemons, cut into wedges, for serving
Directions
For the clams: Add the clams to a large pot or large saute pan with a lid. Add 1/2 cup water and cover the pan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and steam until the clams open, 6 to 10 minutes. Discard any clams that do not open. Reserve 1/4 cup clam juice.
When they are cool enough to handle, remove the empty top shells of each clam and use your fingers to gently pull the clams from the bottom shell; reserve the bottom shells. Finely chop the clams and reserve.
Cook the bacon in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until well crisp and rendered, 8 to 10 minutes.
Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon, leaving the fat in the pan (if the pan seems dry, add a touch of oil). Add the shallots, peppers, a pinch of salt and the crushed red pepper flakes and cook until soft and starting to caramelize, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme to the pan and cook until the raw-garlic flavor is gone and the shallots are sweet, 6 to 8 minutes.
Add the oregano leaves to bloom, then deglaze with the wine and 1/4 cup reserved clam juice and cook until the mixture is reduced by about 80 percent, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the bacon and parsley to combine. Place the bacon mixture in a bowl over an ice bath, stir in the butter and clams and cool slightly until just warm. Taste the mixture and season with salt.
For the breadcrumbs: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Put the panko, crushed garlic clove and a pinch of salt in dry skillet over medium heat and toast, stirring and tossing constantly till lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer the panko mixture to a bowl and stir in the extra-virgin olive oil, pepper flakes and parsley with a fork. Discard the crushed garlic clove.
Stuff each clam shell generously with about 1 tablespoon of the clam mixture and sprinkle with enough breadcrumbs to coat, pressing lightly so the breadcrumbs stick. Place the stuffed clams on a metal tray or cast-iron pan. Bake until hot and golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas For Food Network!
What did that man do to you?! All he's done is made dope beats!😔
No need to roast him😭
Hey Scott I love watching you on Food Network with chopped and all that and and your programs now can you tell me what knives you use
TY it lets me feel my Italian family
So nice to see a master chef at work.
I had a thimble of whiskey every time he said "reserved"…..and now I'm drunk AF on Christmas
Merry Christmas absolutely love clams 😋
Yummy 🤤
Why wear a glove with your cutting hand, cross contaminating everything with the other hand. Weird
I have absolutely no doubt about that man's skill. He also does a great job in front of the camera.
BUT this video was entirely too long. It could have been a 10-minute video and still gotten the point across very nicely.
More Scott Conant! But shorter, please.
We're those little neck or cherry stone clams
Chào bạn chúc bạn và gia đình luôn hạnh phúc vui ve nhất
Glove is on the wrong hand.
In parts of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire, these are called Stuffies.
yes this is wonderful to impress the family!
Looks delicious…
28 minute video for one of the most simple recipes in existence. Pathetic.
He should have done all his prep first before he shot the video
creepy at 25:48
is this the idiot that punishes people for using raw onions despite that being an incredibly popular preparation in cuisines around the world.
Half an hour for this bum recipe?
The glove is a sign of mental illness
I love clams casino and is a must when I’m in Pennsylvania but, I live in Oklahoma so can’t get them. Thanks for the recipe because I would like to try and make them.
What the heck was that???????😅 You have a twin. Yummy recipe
Never steam open clams ,open them raw and then stuff and bake.
So awesome
My favorite way, chopped clams!
Dude I worked kitchen for 20 years before I became a stand up comic I’m from Houston Texas but lived in Connecticut for 9 years I love clams casino so much
