The store-bought stuffed quahogs are loaded with lots of breading and very little clams. A lot of restaurants use butter and a lot of breading, and maybe a tad more clams than the store-bought kind, but not by much, which is why making your own is so much better. Our original stuffies contain a clam stuffing and are topped with dried parsley. Our linguica stuffies contain a clam and linguica sausage stuffing and are topped with dried paprika for a spicy kick.
Instructions to make Mike's Giant Seafood Stuffed Quahog Grilled Clams:
- Mix your stuffing well and heat. Use reserved clam juice if you feel your stuffing is too dry. You'll want it somewhat moist. No need to fry your stuffing if opting out of the fresh veggies. Just heat/steam in microwave.
- Dislodge clams from shell and put back into place. Reserve any fluids if you possibly can.
- If incorporating the fresh veggies, fry in butter until translucent. About 3 minutes for fine minced. Then add stuffing. My students opted for both versions.
- Pack stuffing tightly and generously on your raw giant clams. Grill for 7 minutes covered at 400°. Or, until they're bubbling. Add cheeses at the finish and allow to melt.
- Serve these delicious appetizers with hot sauces to the side. Garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
