    Twice baked potatoes topped with clams and a sweet and savory Apricot Jezebel sauce!

    My recipe for clam-baked twice baked potatoes elevates Penobscot McCrum frozen potato skins and baked potato pulp to an entirely new level. Served in a hot-butter wine broth, accompanied by fresh sautéed clams and a creamy apricot Jezebel sauce, the flavors meld together to create an entrée worthy dish.

    Instructions
     

    Directions

    • In a large mixing bowl combine, Penobscot McCrum potato pulp, celery salt, onion powder, Old Bay Seasoning, 1 tablespoon sour cream, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper to taste, stir to combine.

    • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a saute pan over medium heat, mince shallots and saute until translucent, add chicken broth, white wine and cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbling and hot, add clams and toss until they begin to open. As the clams open, remove the opened clams to a bowl, continue this method until all clams are open and transferred to the bowl.
