Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Cook onion, pepper, celery and garlic until soft. Add lemon juice, clams with juice, and hot sauce. Remove from heat and add bread crumbs. Put into a small greased casserole dish and bake at 350ºF for 20-25 minutes. Serve warm with crackers. Mix clams with their juice and lemon juice in saucepan. Simmer 5 minutes. Combine butter, onion, green pepper, parsley, oregano, garlic and Tabasco. Add to clam mixture and bring to a boil. Jan 24, 2019 Stir in minced clams, garlic, scallions, red pepper flakes, remaining bacon, and remaining 2 tablespoons parsley, until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Transfer dip to serving bowl and top with panko mixture. Top with a few whole leaves of parsley, to garnish, and serve with crackers, crostini, chips, and/or celery, for dipping.

This clams casino dip with bacon has always been the dish I bring to a friend’s house or a tailgate party. It’s a take on the traditional clams casino my mother would make when we had an abundance of clams.

In a medium sized bowl, mash softened cream cheese with a fork until soft and creamy. Slowly add in 1 tablespoon of clam juice while mixing with fork and cream well.

For this recipe I substituted canned clams to bring down the cost. You may use fresh clams but I have found there isn’t a difference in taste. This recipe is easy to make, is served in the dish in which it was baked or it can be fancied by serving them in individual clam shells.
