1.Cook bacon in a medium saute pan until brown. Discard fat. Add butter, clams, peppers, onion, shallot, garlic, and parsley. Cook until onion becomes translucent. Season with cayenne pepper and salt. Stir in breadcrumbs. Mixture will tighten and resemble stuffing. Set aside to cool.
2.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Season each fillet with salt and pepper and place in a baking dish. Divide stuffing mixture in half. Place atop each fillet and spread evenly. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on desired doneness. Serve with lemon wedges.
