For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the clam mixture. If fresh bread crumbs are unavailable, substitute with panko bread crumbs for added crispiness. Ensure that the clam shells are thoroughly cleaned before stuffing.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large frying pan, melt butter with olive oil over medium heat. Stir in onion, and cook until translucent. Stir in clams, crab meat, parsley, lemon pepper, and bread crumbs. Reduce heat to low, and slowly pour in clam juice until mixture is slightly sticky, but not wet. The bread crumbs will continue to absorb moisture, so be careful not to add too much clam juice. (15 minutes)
03
StepFill each clean clam shell with mixture, pressing tightly into shell. Arrange on a baking sheet, and sprinkle lightly with paprika. (Stuffed shells may be covered and frozen at this point for later use.) (10 minutes)
04
StepBake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and sizzling. If frozen, bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes, or until warmed through. Serve warm on a platter with lemon wedges. (20-30 minutes)
