Directions:
- Cook the bacon in skillet until crisp.
- Drain excess fat, roughly chop, and set aside.
- Next, mix the softened butter, shallots, garlic, parsley, lemon juice, salt and cayenne until combined well.
- Arrange the clams in your largest skillet in a single layer.
- Please feel free to steam the clams in batches if they don’t all fit in your pan.
- Add a cup or so of water, cover, bring to a boil, and steam clams until their shells just begin to open.
- Remember, the clams will be finished under the broiler, so don’t let them go too long in the pan after they begin to open!
- Once the clams are cool enough to handle, twist off the top shell and discard.
- Slide a sharp knife under each clam to loosen it from the bottom shell.
- Line baking sheets or broiler pans with a crumpled large piece of foil – this allows you to press the shells into the foil so they are less likely to tip over.
- Spread about 1/4 tsp of seasoned butter on each clam, top with chopped bacon, and 1/2 tsp of breadcrumbs.
- Arrange clams on baking sheet.
- The clams can be prepared up to this point, and them covered and refrigerated up to 4 hours until ready to broil.
- When ready to serve, preheat broiler.
- Broil clams until crumbs are toasted, and butter is melted and sizzling, about 3-4 minutes.
- Serve warm.
