Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Clams

    Rinse the cherrystone clams under cold water to remove any sand or grit. Place them in a bowl of cold water while you prepare the stuffing.

  2. 2

    Make the Stuffing

    In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes). Stir in the bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Clams

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Open each clam and place it in a baking dish. Spoon the stuffing mixture generously on top of each clam.

  4. 4

    Bake the Clams

    Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until the clams are cooked through and the topping is golden brown.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.
