For a quick starter, try these simple Clams With Roasted Tomatoes baked in a paper bag. Serve the clams with some crusty bread and let your guests open the yummy parcels themselves.

Use 2 large pieces of parchment papers for each serving. Place the papers on a large bowl. Divide the clams into 2 equal portions. Top the clams with flavored butter, tomatoes, white wine, and season with sea salt and black pepper. Wrap the paper up and tie it with kitchen strings.
Place the bags on a baking tray and bake for about 18 to 20 minutes, or until the clams are cooked. To serve, cut the kitchen strings, open the paper bag, drizzle some olive oil and garnish with basil and lemon wedges. Serve immediately with some crusty bread.

ReplyDeleteSuch a simple recipe that celebrates the clams. I like the idea that the parcels can be made ahead of time and then popped into the oven when your guests arrive.
