INSTRUCTIONS
Mince onion, green pepper and celery; set aside. Melt butter on high heat
in frying pan, add vegetables and saute until soft and translucent, about
4-5 minutes. Stir periodically with a wooden spoon.
Add clams, including broth, and stir. Season with Worcestershire sauce,
Cajun seasoning and onion powder. Taste, adding salt and pepper or more
Cajun seasoning as desired. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook 5
minutes. Then add Italian bread crumbs.
Place in clam shells or shells purchased in a gourmet store. Add paprika
for color. Place under broiler 5 minutes or until browned.
Makes 12-14 servings.
NOTE: You can do everything ahead except the broiler step and freeze the
clams, covered tightly with foil, until the day of the party. Take out to
defrost in refrigerator and broil at the last minute.
