Garlic, Tomato and Parsley

INGREDIENTS
50 clams, washed and drained
2 Tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 cup grape tomatoes
1 cup white wine

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat large roasting pan in oven for 5 minutes. Add olive oil to pan
and heat for additional 5 minutes. Scatter garlic and tomatoes over bottom of pan and cover with

pan. Mix parsley into wine and pour over hot clams. Bake 5 minutes. Serve immediately with
crusty bread to soak up the juices.
