Ingredients

– 2 dozen fresh clams, scrubbed and rinsed
– 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs

Instructions

Creating Savory Clams Oreganata is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prep the Clams: Place the cleaned clams in a large baking dish, opening them slightly.
3. Make the Topping: In a bowl, combine the seasoned breadcrumbs, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, red pepper flakes, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well until everything is coated.
4. Fill the Clams: Spoon the breadcrumb mixture generously over each clam, pressing it down slightly.
5. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the clams open and the topping is golden brown.
6. Check for Doneness: Discard any clams that do not open, as they may not be safe to eat.
7. Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving with lemon wedges.
