Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Clams

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Clean the topneck clams under cold running water, scrubbing the shells to remove any sand or debris.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

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

  3. 3

    Stuff the Clams

    Place the cleaned clams on a baking sheet. Spoon the filling mixture generously into each clam shell.

  4. 4

    Bake the Clams

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

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious Topnecks!
