Clams Casino
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 ounces sliced pancetta or bacon, finely chopped
- 1 cup finely diced red bell pepper
- 1/3 cup chopped shallots
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/3 cup dry white wine (Sauv. or Fume Blanc)
- 4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 18 medium (2 1/2-inch) littleneck clams, shucked, bottom shells reserved
Directions
Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and saute until lightly crisp and golden, 2-3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to a plate. Add the bell pepper, shallots, garlic, and oregano to the same skillet and saute until the shallots are tender and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add wine and simmer until it is almost evaporated, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and cool completely.
Stir the reserved pancetta and 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese into the vegetable mixture. Season the mixture, to taste, with salt and pepper.
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
Line a large baking sheet with foil. Arrange the clams in the reserved shells on the baking sheet. Spoon the vegetable mixture atop the clams, dividing equally and mounding slightly. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of Parmesan.
Bake until the clams are just cooked through and the topping is golden, about 10 minutes.
Arrange the clams on your favorite platter and serve with fresh lemon wedges and butter (for those who want it)
